  • Ticket #13376 – Description

    initial v8  
    11Smalljac is a library and set of programs for computing L-polynomials and Jacobian group structures of low genus curves over finite fields. Given a curve C of genus 1 or 2 defined over Q or a quadratic number field, it will efficiently compute either the sequence of L-polynomials or Jacobian group structures arising from the reduction of C at all primes of good reduction up to a specified norm bound.

    3 This set of SPKGs and the corresponding patch to Sage 5.2 add support for using smallJac from Sage.

    55 * `EllipticCurve.aplist` can be run with `algorithm="smalljac"`, yielding run times of six times faster on a single core.

    2323The SPKGs only compile and work on 64-bit machines, since SmallJac only supports 64-bit architectures, and require GMP.  Two SPKGs are provided, since SmallJac depends on ff_poly, but so does some of Drew Sutherland's other code, so it makes sense to split the two.  They've been tested to work on a completely clean install of Sage on at least two differently-configured machines.

    25 The patch has been tested to apply cleanly to 5.2.

     27SPKGs are available at [http://www.mit.edu/~pavpan/].  Install first the ff_poly package and then the smalljac package, with the normal Sage package installation mechanisms.  Then apply the patch to a fresh branch of the source code and recompile that branch.
