Local Fields


Removals and Changes:

  • The slow GaloisImage for unramified extensions of Qp without cyclotomic or Gaussian normal bases has been reimplemented for greater speed using modular composition.


New Features:

  • Given a monic polynomial with coefficients in Z, it is now possible to compute a p-adic splitting field.

  • In a local ring L, with residue field k and ring of integers OL, the Teichmüller lift of a non-zero element u $ \in$ k is the unique root of unity $ \hat{{u}}$ $ \in$ OL of order prime to the characteristic of k that reduces to u modulo the maximal ideal. When OL is a fixed precision p-adic quotient ring or unramified extension of such, there is now a fast implementation of TeichmuellerLift using the iterative method of Harley.
