GaloisModulo

Excluding impossible Galois groups by cycle types.

Syntax:

GaloisModulo(o, b);

order
  o  
integer
  b  
bound

See also:  Galois, GaloisBlocks, GaloisGroupsPossible, GaloisTree

Description:

This function computes cycle types of the Galois group by factoring the generating polynomial modulo some prime numbers up to a given bound. Transitive groups without the cycle types are excluded from the list of possible Galois groups and the list is returned.


Example:


kash> o := Order(Z, 8, 2);
Generating polynomial: x^8 - 2

kash> GaloisGroupsPossible(o);
[ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 
  22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 
  41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50 ]
kash> GaloisModulo(o, 100);
> [ 6, 8, 15, 23, 26, 27, 35, 40, 43, 44, 47, 50 ]
