[sage-support] Extensions of Function Fields?

2010-02-04 Thread Alex P
Hi all, I was going through the SAGE manual and it seems that there is no way to use function fields in SAGE. More concretely, one can define FiniteField(3)., but cannot define extensions of it. Is there somebody who knows if this is in the making (I saw that there is a SAGE Function Field days

[sage-support] polynomial interpolation

Hello everyone, I'm new to sage ;-) we have two disjoint sets S1,S2 of size 168 in a field of order 3^6=729. We are looking for a univariate polynomial over this field mapping S1 onto S2. Of course Lagrange interpolation gives a polynomial with degree 167. But there are many choices for such polyn
