[sage-devel] Cubic to Weierstrass

2008-05-22 Thread Bobby Moretti
Andrey, The bundle probably would not be of much use to you, since the function takes as input a Sage multivariate polynomial ring element and outputs a Sage elliptic curve over some field, when all you want is symbolic expression in Weierstrass normal form. Do you have a copy of the implementa

I tried to convert 2*x*y^2 + 2*a5*t*x*y - x^2 + (2*a4 - 8*t^3)*x - 1, where a4, a5, and t are some complex parameters (which I would like to keep as undetermined parameters), to Weierstrass normal form using Nagell's algorithm and was not quite successful since some steps near the end do not finis
