padic_radix.h – p-adic numbers using radix representation

This module implements multiprecision \(p\)-adic numbers for word-size \(p\) using base \(p^e\) limbs building on the radix module. By default the limb radix is chosen as large as possible, e.g. \(p = 7\) will use radix \(7^{22}\) internally on a 64-bit machine. The limb radix is mainly an implementation detail: most user-facing functions measure the precision in digits.

This module is designed to use the generics interface. As such, the ring is represented by a gr_ctx_t context object, methods return status flags (GR_SUCCESS, GR_UNABLE, GR_DOMAIN), and one can use generic structures such as gr_poly_t for polynomials and gr_mat_t for matrices.

Representation of numbers

A radix \(p\)-adic number is represented as a ball \(u p^v + O(p^N)\). The unit \(u\) is stored as a radix_integer_t in the limb radix \(B = p^e\). The valuation \(v\) and the accuracy \(N\) are measured in powers of \(p\) (digits), exactly as in the padic module. We support exact elements (without error term).

A nonzero unit \(u\) is always canonicalised to be non-divisible by \(p\). As a special case, we always set \(v = 0\) when \(u = 0\).

The functions in this module support but are not currently optimized for \(p = 2\).

Precision

We support both absolute and relative precision. If the relative precision is r and the absolute precision is a, \(u p^v\) will be truncated to order \(O(p^{v + r})\) and \(O(p^{a})\). Basic operations track exactly whether a truncation has occurred and will not introduce an \(O(x^N)\) term as long as the result is exact. One can set \(a = +\infty\) to work with relative precision only and \(r = +\infty\) to work with absolute precision only. If both are set to \(+\infty\), we effectively restrict all arithmetic to exact operations in the subring \(\mathbb{Z}[1/p] \subset \mathbb{Q}_p\).

PADIC_RADIX_EXACT

Special value of \(N\) used to mark an exact element.

PADIC_RADIX_ERR_MAX

Upper bound for admissible \(N\): \(O(x^N)\) will automatically be clamped to this bound. Also, negative \(N\) underflowing the negation of this value will trigger a GR_UNABLE status flag.

PADIC_RADIX_PREC_INF

Special precision value representing an infinite precision \(+\infty\).

Context objects

int gr_ctx_init_padic_radix(gr_ctx_t ctx, ulong p, slong prec_rel, slong prec_abs, int flags)

Initialize ctx to represent the field of \(p\)-adic numbers with default relative precision prec_rel and absolute precision prec_abs (either or both can be set to PADIC_RADIX_PREC_INF). It is required (but not checked) that \(p\) is a prime number. The following flags are supported.

PADIC_RADIX_SIGNED

Allow signed units for exact elements.

PADIC_RADIX_NO_ERROR

Floating-point mode: never track error (not implemented).

PADIC_RADIX_DECIMAL

Print the unit as a decimal integer.

PADIC_RADIX_TEST_LIMITS

When set, randtest generates \(v\) and \(N\) values near the representability limits.

General strided dot product. The naive algorithm just calls padic_radix_mul() and padic_radix_add() in a loop. The delayed algorithm computes a global precision and sums the limb cross-products from small operands into multiple accumulators, allowing shifts and divisions by the digit or limb radix to be delayed until the final recombination step. The default algorithm chooses a method automatically.
