Relative number fields#

This example constructs a quadratic extension of a quartic number field:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<y> = NumberField(x^4 - 420*x^2 + 40000)
sage: z = y^5/11; z
420/11*y^3 - 40000/11*y
sage: R.<y> = PolynomialRing(K)
sage: f = y^2 + y + 1
sage: L.<a> = K.extension(f); L
Number Field in a with defining polynomial y^2 + y + 1 over its base field
sage: KL.<b> = NumberField([x^4 - 420*x^2 + 40000, x^2 + x + 1]); KL
Number Field in b0 with defining polynomial x^4 - 420*x^2 + 40000 over its base field

We do some arithmetic in a tower of relative number fields:

sage: K.<cuberoot2> = NumberField(x^3 - 2)
sage: L.<cuberoot3> = K.extension(x^3 - 3)
sage: S.<sqrt2> = L.extension(x^2 - 2)
sage: S

sage: sqrt2 * cuberoot3
cuberoot3*sqrt2
sage: (sqrt2 + cuberoot3)^5
(20*cuberoot3^2 + 15*cuberoot3 + 4)*sqrt2 + 3*cuberoot3^2 + 20*cuberoot3 + 60
sage: cuberoot2 + cuberoot3
cuberoot3 + cuberoot2
sage: cuberoot2 + cuberoot3 + sqrt2
sqrt2 + cuberoot3 + cuberoot2
sage: (cuberoot2 + cuberoot3 + sqrt2)^2
(2*cuberoot3 + 2*cuberoot2)*sqrt2 + cuberoot3^2 + 2*cuberoot2*cuberoot3 + cuberoot2^2 + 2
sage: cuberoot2 + sqrt2
sqrt2 + cuberoot2
sage: a = S(cuberoot2); a

absolute_polynomial()#

Return the polynomial over \(\QQ\) that defines this field as an extension of the rational numbers.

Note

The absolute polynomial of a relative number field is chosen to be equal to the defining polynomial of the underlying PARI absolute number field (it cannot be specified by the user). In particular, it is always a monic polynomial with integral coefficients. On the other hand, the defining polynomial of an absolute number field and the relative polynomial of a relative number field are in general different from their PARI counterparts.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: k.<a, b> = NumberField([x^2 + 1, x^3 + x + 1]); k
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^2 + 1 over its base field

absolute_polynomial_ntl()#

Return defining polynomial of this number field as a pair, an ntl polynomial and a denominator.

This is used mainly to implement some internal arithmetic.

EXAMPLES:

sage: NumberField(x^2 + (2/3)*x - 9/17,'a').absolute_polynomial_ntl()
([-27 34 51], 51)

absolute_vector_space(base=None, *args, **kwds)#

7*a^2 - 10*a - 29
sage: from_V(3*to_V(b))
3*b

automorphisms()#

Compute all Galois automorphisms of self over the base field. This is different from computing the embeddings of self into self; there, automorphisms that do not fix the base field are considered.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a, b> = NumberField([x^2 + 10000, x^2 + x + 50]); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^2 + 10000 over its base field
sage: K.automorphisms()
[
Relative number field endomorphism of Number Field in a
 with defining polynomial x^2 + 10000 over its base field
  Defn: a |--> a
        b |--> b,
Relative number field endomorphism of Number Field in a
 with defining polynomial x^2 + 10000 over its base field
  Defn: a |--> -a
        b |--> b
]
sage: rho, tau = K.automorphisms()
sage: tau(a)
-a
sage: tau(b) == b
True

sage: L.<b, a> = NumberField([x^2 + x + 50, x^2 + 10000, ]); L
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^2 + x + 50 over its base field
sage: L.automorphisms()
[
Relative number field endomorphism of Number Field in b

  Defn: b |--> b
        a |--> a,
Relative number field endomorphism of Number Field in b
 with defining polynomial x^2 + x + 50 over its base field
  Defn: b |--> -b - 1
        a |--> a
]
sage: rho, tau = L.automorphisms()
sage: tau(a) == a
True
sage: tau(b)
-b - 1

sage: PQ.<X> = QQ[]
sage: F.<a, b> = NumberField([X^2 - 2, X^2 - 3])
sage: PF.<Y> = F[]
sage: K.<c> = F.extension(Y^2 - (1 + a)*(a + b)*a*b)
sage: K.automorphisms()
[
Relative number field endomorphism of Number Field in c
 with defining polynomial Y^2 + (-2*b - 3)*a - 2*b - 6 over its base field
  Defn: c |--> c
        a |--> a
        b |--> b,
Relative number field endomorphism of Number Field in c
 with defining polynomial Y^2 + (-2*b - 3)*a - 2*b - 6 over its base field
  Defn: c |--> -c
        a |--> a
        b |--> b
]

base_field()#

Return the base field of this relative number field.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: k.<a> = NumberField([x^3 + x + 1])
sage: R.<z> = k[]
sage: L.<b> = NumberField(z^3 + a)
sage: L.base_field()
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^3 + x + 1
sage: L.base_field() is k
True

This is very useful because the print representation of a relative field doesn’t describe the base field.:

sage: L
Number Field in b with defining polynomial z^3 + a over its base field

base_ring()#

This is exactly the same as base_field.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: k.<a> = NumberField([x^2 + 1, x^3 + x + 1])
sage: k.base_ring()
Number Field in a1 with defining polynomial x^3 + x + 1
sage: k.base_field()
Number Field in a1 with defining polynomial x^3 + x + 1

change_names(names)#

Return relative number field isomorphic to self but with the given generator names.

INPUT:

names – number of names should be at most the number of generators of self, i.e., the number of steps in the tower of relative fields.

Also, K.structure() returns from_K and to_K, where from_K is an isomorphism from \(K\) to self and to_K is an isomorphism from self to \(K\).

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a,b> = NumberField([x^4 + 3, x^2 + 2]); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^4 + 3 over its base field
sage: L.<c,d> = K.change_names()
sage: L
Number Field in c with defining polynomial x^4 + 3 over its base field
sage: L.base_field()
Number Field in d with defining polynomial x^2 + 2

An example with a 3-level tower:

sage: K.<a,b,c> = NumberField([x^2 + 17, x^2 + x + 1, x^3 - 2]); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^2 + 17 over its base field
sage: L.<m,n,r> = K.change_names()
sage: L
Number Field in m with defining polynomial x^2 + 17 over its base field
sage: L.base_field()
Number Field in n with defining polynomial x^2 + x + 1 over its base field
sage: L.base_field().base_field()
Number Field in r with defining polynomial x^3 - 2

And a more complicated example:

sage: PQ.<X> = QQ[]
sage: F.<a, b> = NumberField([X^2 - 2, X^2 - 3])
sage: PF.<Y> = F[]
sage: K.<c> = F.extension(Y^2 - (1 + a)*(a + b)*a*b)
sage: L.<m, n, r> = K.change_names(); L
Number Field in m with defining polynomial
 x^2 + (-2*r - 3)*n - 2*r - 6 over its base field
sage: L.structure()
(Isomorphism given by variable name change map:
  From: Number Field in m with defining polynomial
        x^2 + (-2*r - 3)*n - 2*r - 6 over its base field
  To:   Number Field in c with defining polynomial
        Y^2 + (-2*b - 3)*a - 2*b - 6 over its base field,
 Isomorphism given by variable name change map:
  From: Number Field in c with defining polynomial
        Y^2 + (-2*b - 3)*a - 2*b - 6 over its base field
  To:   Number Field in m with defining polynomial
        x^2 + (-2*r - 3)*n - 2*r - 6 over its base field)

composite_fields(other, names=None, both_maps=False, preserve_embedding=True)#

List of all possible composite number fields formed from self and other, together with (optionally) embeddings into the compositum; see the documentation for both_maps below.

Since relative fields do not have ambient embeddings, preserve_embedding has no effect. In every case all possible composite number fields are returned.

INPUT:

other – a number field
names – generator name for composite fields
both_maps – (default: False) if True, return quadruples (\(F\), self_into_F, ``other_into_F, \(k\)) such that self_into_F maps self into \(F\), other_into_F maps other into \(F\). For relative number fields, \(k\) is always None.
preserve_embedding – (default: True) has no effect, but is kept for compatibility with the absolute version of this method. In every case the list of all possible compositums is returned.

OUTPUT:

list of the composite fields, possibly with maps.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a, b> = NumberField([x^2 + 5, x^2 - 2])

Return the \(n\)’th generator of this relative number field.

EXAMPLES:

sage: K.<a,b> = NumberField([x^4 + 3, x^2 + 2]); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^4 + 3 over its base field
sage: K.gens()
(a, b)
sage: K.gen(0)

Return the generators of this relative number field.

EXAMPLES:

sage: K.gens()
(a, b)

is_CM_extension()#

Return True is this is a CM extension, i.e. a totally imaginary quadratic extension of a totally real field.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: F.<a> = NumberField(x^2 - 5)
sage: K.<z> = F.extension(x^2 + 7)
sage: K.is_CM_extension()
True
sage: K = CyclotomicField(7)
sage: K_rel = K.relativize(K.gen() + K.gen()^(-1), 'z')
sage: K_rel.is_CM_extension()
True
sage: F = CyclotomicField(3)
sage: K.<z> = F.extension(x^3 - 2)
sage: K.is_CM_extension()
False

A CM field \(K\) such that \(K/F\) is not a CM extension

sage: F.<a> = NumberField(x^2 + 1)
sage: K.<z> = F.extension(x^2 - 3)
sage: K.is_CM_extension()
False
sage: K.is_CM()
True

is_absolute()#

Return False, since this is not an absolute field.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a,b> = NumberField([x^4 + 3, x^2 + 2]); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^4 + 3 over its base field
sage: K.is_absolute()
False
sage: K.is_relative()
True

is_free(proof=None)#

Determine whether or not \(L/K\) is free.

(i.e. if \(\mathcal{O}_L\) is a free \(\mathcal{O}_K\)-module).

INPUT:

proof – default: True

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(QQ)
sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^2 + 6)
sage: x = polygen(K)
sage: L.<b> = K.extension(x^2 + 3)    # extend by x^2+3
sage: L.is_free()
False

is_galois()#

For a relative number field, is_galois() is deliberately not implemented, since it is not clear whether this would mean “Galois over \(\QQ\)” or “Galois over the given base field”. Use either is_galois_absolute() or is_galois_relative(), respectively.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: k.<a> = NumberField([x^3 - 2, x^2 + x + 1])
sage: k.is_galois()
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
NotImplementedError: For a relative number field L you must use
either L.is_galois_relative() or L.is_galois_absolute() as appropriate

is_galois_absolute()#

Return True if for this relative extension \(L/K\), \(L\) is a Galois extension of \(\QQ\).

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^3 - 2)
sage: y = polygen(K); L.<b> = K.extension(y^2 - a)
sage: L.is_galois_absolute()                                                # needs sage.groups
False

is_galois_relative()#

Return True if for this relative extension \(L/K\), \(L\) is a Galois extension of \(K\).

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^3 - 2)
sage: y = polygen(K)
sage: L.<b> = K.extension(y^2 - a)
sage: L.is_galois_relative()
True
sage: M.<c> = K.extension(y^3 - a)
sage: M.is_galois_relative()
False

The next example previously gave a wrong result; see github issue #9390:

sage: F.<a, b> = NumberField([x^2 - 2, x^2 - 3])
sage: F.is_galois_relative()
True

is_isomorphic_relative(other, base_isom=None)#

For this relative extension \(L/K\) and another relative extension \(M/K\), return True if there is a \(K\)-linear isomorphism from \(L\) to \(M\). More generally, other can be a relative extension \(M/K^\prime\) with base_isom an isomorphism from \(K\) to \(K^\prime\).

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<z9> = NumberField(x^6 + x^3 + 1)
sage: R.<z> = PolynomialRing(K)
sage: m1 = 3*z9^4 - 4*z9^3 - 4*z9^2 + 3*z9 - 8
sage: L1 = K.extension(z^2 - m1, 'b1')

sage: # needs sage.groups
sage: G = K.galois_group(); gamma = G.gen()
sage: m2 = (gamma^2)(m1)
sage: L2 = K.extension(z^2 - m2, 'b2')
sage: L1.is_isomorphic_relative(L2)
False
sage: L1.is_isomorphic(L2)
True

sage: L3 = K.extension(z^4 - m1, 'b3')
sage: L1.is_isomorphic_relative(L3)
False

If we have two extensions over different, but isomorphic, bases, we can compare them by letting base_isom be an isomorphism from self’s base field to other’s base field:

sage: Kcyc.<zeta9> = CyclotomicField(9)
sage: Rcyc.<zcyc> = PolynomialRing(Kcyc)
sage: phi1 = K.hom([zeta9])
sage: m1cyc = phi1(m1)
sage: L1cyc = Kcyc.extension(zcyc^2 - m1cyc, 'b1cyc')
sage: L1.is_isomorphic_relative(L1cyc, base_isom=phi1)
True

sage: # needs sage.groups
sage: L2.is_isomorphic_relative(L1cyc, base_isom=phi1)
False
sage: phi2 = K.hom([phi1((gamma^(-2))(z9))])
sage: L1.is_isomorphic_relative(L1cyc, base_isom=phi2)
False
sage: L2.is_isomorphic_relative(L1cyc, base_isom=phi2)
True

Omitting base_isom raises a ValueError when the base fields are not identical:

sage: L1.is_isomorphic_relative(L1cyc)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: other does not have the same base field as self,
so an isomorphism from self's base_field to other's base_field
must be provided using the base_isom parameter.

The parameter base_isom can also be used to check if the relative extensions are Galois conjugate:

sage: for g in G:                                                           # needs sage.groups
....:   if L1.is_isomorphic_relative(L2, g.as_hom()):
....:       print(g.as_hom())

  Defn: z9 |--> z9^4

lift_to_base(element)#

Lift an element of this extension into the base field if possible, or raise a ValueError if it is not possible.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ)
sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^3 - 2)
sage: R.<y> = K[]
sage: L.<b> = K.extension(y^2 - a)
sage: L.lift_to_base(b^4)

sage: L.lift_to_base(b^6)

sage: L.lift_to_base(355/113)

sage: L.lift_to_base(b)
Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: The element b is not in the base field

logarithmic_embedding(prec=53)#

24

order(*gens, **kwds)#

Return the order with given ring generators in the maximal order of this number field.

INPUT:

gens – list of elements of self; if no generators are given, just returns the cardinality of this number field (\(\infty\)) for consistency.
check_is_integral – bool (default: True), whether to check that each generator is integral.
check_rank – bool (default: True), whether to check that the ring generated by gens is of full rank.
allow_subfield – bool (default: False), if True and the generators do not generate an order, i.e., they generate a subring of smaller rank, instead of raising an error, return an order in a smaller number field.

The check_is_integral and check_rank inputs must be given as explicit keyword arguments.

EXAMPLES:

sage: P.<a,b,c> = QQ[2^(1/2), 2^(1/3), 3^(1/2)]                             # needs sage.symbolic

The base ring of an order in a relative extension is still \(\ZZ\).:

Integer Ring

One must give enough generators to generate a ring of finite index in the maximal order:

sage: P.order([a, b])                                                       # needs sage.symbolic
Traceback (most recent call last):

sage: type(K.pari_absolute_base_polynomial())
<class 'cypari2.gen.Gen'>

pari_relative_polynomial()#

Return the PARI relative polynomial associated to this number field.

This is always a polynomial in \(x\) and \(y\), suitable for PARI’s pari:rnfinit function. Notice that if this is a relative extension of a relative extension, the base field is the absolute base field.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: k.<i> = NumberField(x^2 + 1)
sage: m.<z> = k.extension(k['w']([i,0,1]))
sage: m
Number Field in z with defining polynomial w^2 + i over its base field

[x^4 + 3, [364, -10*x^7 - 87*x^5 - 370*x^3 - 41*x], [108, 3], ...]

places(all_complex=False, prec=None)#

Return the collection of all infinite places of self.

By default, this returns the set of real places as homomorphisms into RIF first, followed by a choice of one of each pair of complex conjugate homomorphisms into CIF.

On the other hand, if prec is not None, we simply return places into RealField(prec) and ComplexField(prec) (or RDF, CDF if prec=53).

There is an optional flag all_complex, which defaults to False. If all_complex is True, then the real embeddings are returned as embeddings into CIF instead of RIF.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: L.<b, c> = NumberFieldTower([x^2 - 5, x^3 + x + 3])
sage: L.places()                                                            # needs sage.libs.linbox

polynomial()#

For a relative number field, polynomial() is deliberately not implemented. Either relative_polynomial() or absolute_polynomial() must be used.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a> = NumberFieldTower([x^2 + x + 1, x^3 + x + 1])
sage: K.polynomial()
Traceback (most recent call last):

sage: K.relative_degree()
2

relative_different()#

Return the relative different of this extension \(L/K\) as an ideal of \(L\). If you want the absolute different of \(L/\QQ\), use absolute_different().

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<i> = NumberField(x^2 + 1)

sage: L.<a> = K.extension(t^4  - i)
sage: L.relative_different()
Fractional ideal (4)

relative_discriminant()#

Return the relative discriminant of this extension \(L/K\) as an ideal of \(K\). If you want the (rational) discriminant of \(L/\QQ\), use e.g. L.absolute_discriminant().

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a> = NumberFieldTower([x^2 + x + 1, x^3 + x + 1])
sage: K.relative_polynomial()
x^2 + x + 1

Use absolute_polynomial() for a polynomial that defines the absolute extension.:

sage: K.absolute_polynomial()
x^6 + 3*x^5 + 8*x^4 + 9*x^3 + 7*x^2 + 6*x + 3

relative_vector_space(base=None, *args, **kwds)#

Return vector space over the base field of self and isomorphisms from the vector space to self and in the other direction.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a,b,c> = NumberField([x^2 + 2, x^3 + 2, x^3 + 3]); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^2 + 2 over its base field

sage: from_V(to_V(K.0))

sage: to_V(from_V(V.0))

sage: to_V(from_V(V.1))

The underlying vector space and maps is cached:

sage: W, from_V, to_V = K.relative_vector_space()
sage: V is W
True

relativize(alpha, names)#

Given an element in self or an embedding of a subfield into self, return a relative number field \(K\) isomorphic to self that is relative over the absolute field \(\QQ(\alpha)\) or the domain of \(\alpha\), along with isomorphisms from \(K\) to self and from self to \(K\).

INPUT:

alpha – an element of self, or an embedding of a subfield into self
names – name of generator for output field \(K\).

OUTPUT: \(K\) – a relative number field

Also, K.structure() returns from_K and to_K, where from_K is an isomorphism from \(K\) to self and to_K is an isomorphism from self to \(K\).

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a,b> = NumberField([x^4 + 3, x^2 + 2]); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^4 + 3 over its base field
sage: L.<z,w> = K.relativize(a^2)
sage: z^2
z^2
sage: w^2
-3
sage: L
Number Field in z with defining polynomial
 x^4 + (-2*w + 4)*x^2 + 4*w + 1 over its base field
sage: L.base_field()
Number Field in w with defining polynomial x^2 + 3

Now suppose we have \(K\) below \(L\) below \(M\):

sage: M = NumberField(x^8 + 2, 'a'); M
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^8 + 2
sage: L, L_into_M, _ = M.subfields(4)[0]; L
Number Field in a0 with defining polynomial x^4 + 2
sage: K, K_into_L, _ = L.subfields(2)[0]; K
Number Field in a0_0 with defining polynomial x^2 + 2
sage: K_into_M = L_into_M * K_into_L

sage: L_over_K = L.relativize(K_into_L, 'c'); L_over_K

sage: L_over_K_to_L, L_to_L_over_K = L_over_K.structure()
sage: M_over_L_over_K = M.relativize(L_into_M * L_over_K_to_L, 'd')
sage: M_over_L_over_K
Number Field in d with defining polynomial x^2 + c over its base field
sage: M_over_L_over_K.base_field() is L_over_K
True

Test relativizing a degree 6 field over its degree 2 and degree 3 subfields, using both an explicit element:

sage: K.<a> = NumberField(x^6 + 2); K
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^6 + 2
sage: K2, K2_into_K, _ = K.subfields(2)[0]; K2
Number Field in a0 with defining polynomial x^2 + 2
sage: K3, K3_into_K, _ = K.subfields(3)[0]; K3
Number Field in a0 with defining polynomial x^3 - 2

Here we explicitly relativize over an element of K2 (not the generator):

sage: L = K.relativize(K3_into_K, 'b'); L
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^2 + a0 over its base field
sage: L_to_K, K_to_L = L.structure()
sage: L_over_K2 = L.relativize(K_to_L(K2_into_K(K2.gen() + 1)), 'c'); L_over_K2
Number Field in c0 with defining polynomial x^3 - c1 + 1 over its base field
sage: L_over_K2.base_field()
Number Field in c1 with defining polynomial x^2 - 2*x + 3

Here we use a morphism to preserve the base field information:

sage: K2_into_L = K_to_L * K2_into_K
sage: L_over_K2 = L.relativize(K2_into_L, 'c'); L_over_K2
Number Field in c with defining polynomial x^3 - a0 over its base field
sage: L_over_K2.base_field() is K2
True

roots_of_unity()#

Return all the roots of unity in this relative field, primitive or not.

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a, b> = NumberField([x^2 + x + 1, x^4 + 1])
sage: rts = K.roots_of_unity()
sage: len(rts)
24
sage: all(u in rts for u in [b*a, -b^2*a - b^2, b^3, -a, b*a + b])
True

subfields(degree=0, name=None)#

Return all subfields of this relative number field self of the given degree, or of all possible degrees if degree is 0. The subfields are returned as absolute fields together with an embedding into self. For the case of the field itself, the reverse isomorphism is also provided.

EXAMPLES:

sage: PQ.<X> = QQ[]
sage: F.<a, b> = NumberField([X^2 - 2, X^2 - 3])
sage: PF.<Y> = F[]
sage: K.<c> = F.extension(Y^2 - (1 + a)*(a + b)*a*b)

uniformizer(P, others='positive')#

Returns an element of self with valuation 1 at the prime ideal \(P\).

INPUT:

self – a number field
P – a prime ideal of self
others – either "positive" (default), in which case the element will have non-negative valuation at all other primes of self, or "negative", in which case the element will have non-positive valuation at all other primes of self.

Note

When \(P\) is principal (e.g., always when self has class number one), the result may or may not be a generator of \(P\)!

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a, b> = NumberField([x^2 + 23, x^2 - 3])
sage: P = K.prime_factors(5)[0]; P
Fractional ideal (5, 1/2*a + b - 5/2)

sage: u.valuation(P)

sage: (P, 1) in K.factor(u)
True

vector_space(*args, **kwds)#

For a relative number field, vector_space() is deliberately not implemented, so that a user cannot confuse relative_vector_space() with absolute_vector_space().

EXAMPLES:

sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: K.<a> = NumberFieldTower([x^2 - 17, x^3 - 2])
sage: K.vector_space()
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
NotImplementedError: For a relative number field L you must use either
L.relative_vector_space() or L.absolute_vector_space() as appropriate

sage.rings.number_field.number_field_rel.NumberField_relative_v1(base_field, poly, name, latex_name, canonical_embedding=None)#

Used for unpickling old pickles.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.rings.number_field.number_field_rel import NumberField_relative_v1
sage: R.<x> = CyclotomicField(3)[]
sage: NumberField_relative_v1(CyclotomicField(3), x^2 + 7, 'a', 'a')
Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^2 + 7 over its base field

sage.rings.number_field.number_field_rel.is_RelativeNumberField(x)#

Return True if \(x\) is a relative number field.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.rings.number_field.number_field_rel import is_RelativeNumberField
sage: x = polygen(ZZ, 'x')
sage: is_RelativeNumberField(NumberField(x^2+1,'a'))
False
sage: k.<a> = NumberField(x^3 - 2)
sage: l.<b> = k.extension(x^3 - 3); l
Number Field in b with defining polynomial x^3 - 3 over its base field
sage: is_RelativeNumberField(l)
True
sage: is_RelativeNumberField(QQ)
False
