Nice simplification! To secure it, one should probably perform
- self._degree = degree + self._degree = ZZ(degree)
in the __init__
method of ExtPowerFreeModule
and ExtPowerDualFreeModule
.

Good idea!

This is just a general comment not only related to this ticket (I picked this ticket randomly), but worth to emphasize once again: the deeper you dig and the more comprehensive your modifications are in the tensor
module, the more likely it may corrupt the manifolds code, as there is a very strong dependence. Please be aware of that fact. I don't think it will go so far, but it would be very sad if the manifolds
module would be unusable in the upcoming version of Sage.
Furthermore, since the manifolds
module is similarly structured, it is very likely that analogous improvements can be applied there, too.

Thanks. Well, that's why we have doctests and peer review. I run the doctests also in the manifolds module -- and the patchbot runs all doctests.
Furthermore, since the
manifolds
module is similarly structured, it is very likely that analogous improvements can be applied there, too.
Absolutely. I'll hope to do that when I have learned more about the manifolds code (I hope to be using this code soon for some of my research), or when it becomes necessary because of changes in the tensor modules code. Do feel free to make these changes if you would like them earlier.

Thanks for expressing your concern. However, as Matthias pointed out in his reply (comment:9), doctests shall prevent breakage in the manifold part. It remains true that doctests are not exhaustive and it will be more satisfactory to have a more comprehensive test suite, albeit more CPU consuming. Such a suite could be derived from the manifold examples page. I guess one shall first turn these Jupyter notebooks into rst files, via the export menu. When there is a significant change in the manifold/tensor code, I usually run by hand some selected examples from the above page, typically, the S2 sphere, the S3 one, the Kerr spacetime (good test of parallel computation of the Riemann tensor) and the anti-de Sitter space. An automated test suite would be of great help in this respect.
Another concern one might have is performance, which is not tracked by doctests, but could be in the test suite (note that there is a total CPU time measurement in the Kerr notebook mentioned above).
That being said, I think the changes in the tensor
modules proposed by Matthias are great improvements. In particular, they shall make FiniteRankFreeModule
usable for other purposes than tensor field computations on smooth manifolds.
Furthermore, since the
manifolds
module is similarly structured, it is very likely that analogous improvements can be applied there, too.
Indeed!

+1. Could they possibly be added as thematic tutorials in the main sage tree, or are there technical limitations that would prevent that?

Yes, this is an important point - and one for which Sage unfortunately does not have a very good solution. Sure - we notice performance regressions sometimes when doctests suddenly time out. But obviously doctests are not very well suited as benchmarks. (One might think about "# optional - benchmark" annotations though...)
(By the way, some of the doctests in sage.manifolds probably should be marked "long" -- I frequently see them time out in the automated tests on GitHub actions - see for example https://github.com/sagemath/sage/runs/910575697?check_suite_focus=true)

Thanks for pointing this out in such detail, Eric. I was not sure how "deep" the doctesting of the patchbot actually goes.
That being said, I think the changes in the tensor modules proposed by Matthias are great improvements. In particular, they shall make FiniteRankFreeModule? usable for other purposes than tensor field computations on smooth manifolds.
I didn't mean to be dismissive, sorry. I think the modifications and the effort by Matthias are extremely beneficial to the project. :)

The large CPU times could prevent to add these examples to the thematic tutorials, which are doctested at each run of make ptestlong
. For instance, if you look at the last cell of the Kerr notebook, you see that it takes about 6 min when running in parallel on 8 processes. NB: most of this CPU time is not spent in the actual tensor calculations, but in the simplifications of the involved symbolic expressions.

Yes, we should open a ticket for this.

Or use nbval.

Thank you Samuel for the tip! I was not aware of nbval.
