smalljac is a library developed under Andrew Sutherland to do computations with elliptic curves. In particular, it can find group representations of genus 1 and 2 elliptic curves over finite fields. Among other things, it can quickly compute the Jacobian structures and L-polynomials of the reductions of a curve over Q; these computations can be done in parallel to utilize multiple cores. It's probably the fastest implementation of most of the algorithms it includes. I'm a student working with Andrew Sutherland to bring these functions to Sage. The associated code (two SPKGs and a patch to Sage proper) are in the following ticket:
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/13376 What other steps should I take to bring this project to conclusion? Is there anything else the Sage project needs to accept code submissions (copyright assignment, etc)? Does adding smalljac support to Sage a change that is likely to be incorporated? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
