It solves a range of problems, e.g., in no particular order:

E.g. schemes/riemann_surfaces/riemann_surface.py is neither "basic" nor dating back that much - it's also under relatively active development, see its header: - Alexandre Zotine, Nils Bruin (2017-06-10): initial version - Nils Bruin, Jeroen Sijsling (2018-01-05): algebraization, isomorphisms - Linden Disney-Hogg, Nils Bruin (2021-06-23): efficient integration - Linden Disney-Hogg, Nils Bruin (2022-09-07): Abel-Jacobi map It's using Voronoi diagrams from scipy. Well, scipy.spatial.Voronoi was added in SciPy 0.12.0 (https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.spatial.Voronoi.html), released pretty much exactly a decade ago -- https://pypi.org/project/scipy/#history Next? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
