Comment (by moritz):
Replying to [comment:9 mmarco]:
> Would it be a lot of trouble to introduce also the possibility of using
algebraic extensions of QQ as base ring? Arithmetic in those cases may be
slow, but i can imagine some situations where it would be important to
know the vertices of the diagram in an exact form.
I don't see how one could easily adapt the algorithm for algebraic
extensions of QQ for the following reason:
The Polyhedron-method only works with QQ and RDF.
If you really want support for extensions of QQ, either the algorithm of
finding the Voronoi-diagram has to be changed, or one has adapt the
Polyhedron method. Both are nontrivial tasks, which might make a good
upgrade later on.
