AlffEltApprox

Computes an approximating element of an algebraic function field F.

Syntax:

alpha := AlffEltApprox(S, Lambda, A [,a]);

element
  alpha  
of the algebraic function field F
list
  S  
of places of F
alff divisor
  A  
list
  a  
of elements of F

Description:

Let F be an algebraic function field, S = {P_1,\dots,P_r} a set of r places of F (r a positive integer), \Lambda = {n_1,\dots,n_r} a list of r integers and a = {a_1,\dots,a_r} a list of r elements of F (if a is not given as a parameter, then a_i is assumed be a zero for all i). Let A be a divisor of F whose support Supp(A) is disjoint to S and whose degree is positive. Then this function computes an element \alpha of F with (1) v_{P_i}(\alpha) = n_i (i=1,\dots,r) and (2) v_{P}(\alpha) >= 0 for all P\in F, P\notin (Scup Supp(A)).
