Description (last modified by )
We should add splitting_field()
function: given a polynomial, compute the number field generated by all the roots.

Jeroen, what is the status of the patch here?
comment:7 Changed 10 years ago by
I totally forgot about this. I might be good to revisit this.

I originally had plans for some speed-ups, but since the code works fine, I guess it can be reviewed.

I ran all standard tests, and everything passed.
I was trying to test functionality, but I'm confused by the differences file. All of the old examples seem to work, and none of the new ones work.
In the first example, I get:
sage: G = NumberField(x^3 - x - 1,'a').galois_closure('b').galois_group(); G Galois group of Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^6 - 14*x^4 + 20*x^3 + 49*x^2 - 140*x + 307
The expected output seems to have been changed from this result to
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^6 - 6*x^4 + 9*x^2 + 23
These fields are isomorphic, but I've tried the example on three machines, and all of them give the first thing as the output.
Similarly, the second example doesn't work:
sage: G.subgroup([ G(1), G([(1,2,3),(4,5,6)]), G([(1,3,2),(4,6,5)]) ]) Traceback (click to the left of this block for traceback) ... TypeError: permutation [(1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6)] not in Galois group of Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^6 - 14*x^4 + 20*x^3 + 49*x^2 - 140*x + 307
But the original example (now deleted) does work:
sage: G.subgroup([ G(1), G([(1,5,2),(3,4,6)]), G([(1,2,5),(3,6,4)])]) Subgroup [(), (1,5,2)(3,4,6), (1,2,5)(3,6,4)] of Galois group of Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^6 - 14*x^4 + 20*x^3 + 49*x^2 - 140*x + 307

here is a patch to correct the failing doctest
let us see if the bot is happy
apply 2217_splitting_field.patch trac_2217_correction.patch

ok, the bot is happy. Now the ticket needs review.
comment:13 Changed 9 years ago by
I am about to test and review this, which will also involve converting the patches to a git branch. And rebasing, since the patches do not apply cleanly to the develop branch (6.1.beta2).

Hang on John, I was planning to do that and make some simplifications also.

I did not see this comment until after I had finished, so I may have been wasting my time. I had to apply the changes manually since I could not get the patches to apply. Shall I still upload my new branch? I have a commit which includes both the patches and passes all tests -- but have not yet started the real review process, i.e. reading the code.

Of course you should. My point was mainly that I wanted to make some changes to my patch, so you should wait to review it.

OK, so here is a branch which implements your two patches. I will not do any more until asked, and hope that this will save you effort! I also hope that this will not hide your genuine authorship of the new code.

I am looking at your new commits. At first I assumed that your commits were based on mine uploaded earlier, but when pulling yours on top of mine failed I guessed the truth. This is of course fine -- except that some people might now argue otherwise: during the time when my commit was attached to this ticket, it is possible that other people pulled it and based further work, new tickets etc, all on my unreviewed commit. That would have been stupid of them, but some of the comments on the recent sage-devel thread make it clear that git purists would never so this. I won't tell anyone if you do not! ;)

I absolutely understand your point, but I think I indicated that this was work in progress so I felt it was safe to "rewrite history". Now that it's needs_review
, I will no longer rewrite history.
Concerning authorship: I did indeed reset the author name back to myself (git commit --amend --author Demeyer
), and that's already rewriting history.

Understood. I am happy (and quite impressed!) with the new code and am just testing, using the verbose option so I can see what is happening.

Code looks very good, and I am happy with the results of testing. I have looked at the commits on branch u/jdemeyer/ticket/2217 up to commit c50eb3e...

Thanks, I didn't expect such a quick review.
Am I allowed to add more examples/doctests?

Of course! I think there are already a lot of examples, which I liked. If you are going to make some more changes I would be happy to look at them, so I'll now mark the ticket as needs work, and when you are ready put it back to needs review. While you are at it, the description of the class containing a pair (polynomial, degree multiple) is slightly confusing since it refers to other polynomials in the class, whereas you actually deal with lists of instances of these.
I am currently working on another branch so the next review will not be so quick!

In that case, perhaps I prefer to leave this ticket and continue on a new ticket. Sorry for the mess.

Note that this approach does not give the splitting field. It gives a field containing at least one root of each factor of the original polynomial, but that still might not be the splitting field.
Later in the thread mentioned above, I give a technique using internals of qqbar which I believe does give the splitting field (perhaps inefficiently).
