I am trying to calculate a place of the degree 8 extension field of a rational function field over GF(2^16) in SageMath. However, when I do this, it is taking a very long time and doesn't produce a result even after hours of computation. The commands I am running: sage: F.<x> = FunctionField(GF(2^16)) sage: R.<y> = F[] sage: f = y^8 + x*y^6 + x^2*y^4 + y^3 + x sage: K.<z> = F.extension(f) sage: K.places(8)[:1] This line produces a list of all places of F of degree 8. So that's a huge list! It wouldn't fit in memory. If you want to get some places to experiment with, you probably want to create them without creating all degree 8 places. Perhaps something like K(x-1).divisor().support() gives some usable places. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
