polynomial .reduce returns type int over p-adic field

[bhutz]

The .reduce() function for a polynomial ring can return an 'int' type when the base field is a p-adic field.

R.<y1,y2>=PolynomialRing(Qp(5),2, order='lex')
G=[y1^2 + y2^2, y1*y2 + y2^2, y2^3]
type((y2^3).reduce(G))

It should be returning an element of the polynomial ring.

This was noticed since it causes .variety() to fail.

R.<y1,y2>=PolynomialRing(Qp(5),2, order='lex')
G=[y1^2 + y2^2, y1*y2 + y2^2, y2^3]
I=ideal(G)
I.variety()

I fixed some formatting issues with the ticket description.

[john_perry]

And promptly broke them, as well. (It looked good before I hit submit, honest!) Okay, I'll try again...

I can work on this, if no one else has their heart set on it.

Please do! If it's a simple fix of type, maybe I can review it for you.

It would be very easy if I could figure out how I pooched my development environment. I have a working fix, but mercurial doesn't seem to notice the changes. I hate it when this happens.

simple patch + doctest

[john_perry]

I said it was an easy fix. This bug has burned me in other contexts, so it wasn't hard to find and fix.

I still get

sage: I=ideal(G)
sage: I.variety()
verbose 0 (3482: multi_polynomial_ideal.py, groebner_basis) Warning: falling back to very slow toy implementation.

but presumably that's okay. I'm uploading a slight refresh of your patch to use our new(ish) :trac: markup, and fixed the other non-occurrence of that in the file (there were several with the new markup already).

If you mean that the warnings are bothering you, then yes, that's okay. Unless I misread the Singular manual, it doesn't deal with Qp, though I could be wrong (I know next to nothing about p-adics, and Singular does deal with Zp). If Singular DOES implement Qp, then we haven't yet implemented that interface. That should be another ticket, though, because this bug would likely pop up even if we weren't in Qp.

Hunh. I didn't know about that. I wonder if I can remember it for the future... ;-)

[bhutz]

Thanks. This looked good on my tests as well.

Yes, that result from .variety() is the correct final answer, well really the result is the point (1:0:0) in projective space Qp, but up to precision that is what is returned. The warnings I ignored ;)
