Builds
Hecke is a software package for algebraic number theory maintained by Claus Fieker and Tommy Hofmann. It is written in julia and is based on the computer algebra package Nemo.
- https://github.com/thofma/Hecke.jl (Source code)
- http://hecke.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ (Online documentation)
So far, Hecke provides the following features:
- Orders (including element and ideal arithmetic) in number fields
- Computation of maximal orders
- Verified residue computations of Dedekind zeta functions
- Factor base creation and relations search in number fields
- Lattice enumeration
- Sparse linear algebra
To use Hecke, a julia version of 0.4 or higher is necessary (the latest stable julia version will do). Please see http://julialang.org/downloads for instructions on how to obtain julia for your system. Once a suitable julia version is installed, use the following steps at the julia prompt to install Hecke:
julia> Pkg.clone("https://github.com/nemocas/Nemo.jl")
julia> Pkg.clone("https://github.com/thofma/Hecke.jl")
julia> Pkg.build("Hecke")Here is a quick example of using Hecke:

julia> f = x^3 + 2;
julia> K, a = NumberField(f, "a");
julia> O = MaximalOrder(K);
julia> O
Maximal order of Number field over Rational Field with defining polynomial x^3 + 2
with basis [1,a,a^2]The online documentation can be found here: [http://hecke.readthedocs.org/en/latest/]
The documentation of the single functions can also be accessed at the julia prompt. Here is an example:
help?> signature
search: signature
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
signature(O::NfMaximalOrder) -> Tuple{Int, Int}
| Returns the signature of the ambient number field of \mathcal O.
