Hi,
I've been playing with spaces of modular symbols over finite fields, and
I ran into two issues that seem to be separate (they're tickets #1231
and #1232 now):
1. doing
ModularSymbols(1,8,0,GF(3)).simple_factors()
gives
- ------------------------------------------------------------
Unhandled SIGSEGV: A segmentation fault occured in SAGE.
This probably occured because a *compiled* component
of SAGE has a bug in it (typically accessing invalid memory)
or is not properly wrapped with _sig_on, _sig_off.
You might want to run SAGE under gdb with 'sage -gdb' to debug this.
SAGE will now terminate (sorry).
- ------------------------------------------------------------
The same phenomenon occurs over other finite fields.
2. doing
ModularSymbols(1,6,0,GF(2)).simple_factors()
gives
-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have not looked at the implementation, but as far as I know the
algorithms with modular symbols work directly over the field of
definition, so it seems unlikely that this is related to the problem
that Ifti raised a few days ago, about reduction of coefficients modulo
prime ideals.
Best,
Alex
