New description:
In #18356, is implemented an algorithm for computing the composed sum,
difference, product and division of two polynomials. That can be used to
fasten exactification in QQbar.
See also #17886.
---------------------------
From the older description
Here is an example in which a fast algorithm for resultants makes a
difference in timings:
{{{
sage: from sage.calculus.calculus import minpoly
sage: ex = solve(x^4 + x^3 + sqrt(2)*x + 1 == 0, x)[0].rhs()
sage: time minpoly(ex, algorithm='algebraic')
Wall time: 6.81 s
x^8 + 2*x^7 + x^6 + 2*x^4 + 2*x^3 - 2*x^2 + 1
}}}
in commit 12a1053f78c9efee9f3e6c88eb2c1c89d2db4312
it takes 31s; the difference in timings is in the computation of
resultants.

Comment:
To me, it would make more sense to use directly `composed_op` in #17886
and close this ticket as duplicate.
