Re: [sage-support] Re: Eigen spaces of algebraic matrices broken ?

2022-02-06 Thread Emmanuel Charpentier


Nins and me got *different* random matrices : his was composed of integers 
in (-2..2), and Sage could compute its eigenspaces ; mine was :

sage: with seed(0): M = matrix(AA, 3, 3, lambda u,v: AA.random_element())
sage: M.apply_map(lambda u:u.radical_expression())
[   -sqrt(2) - 1-1/4  -2*sqrt(3)]
[1/2  1/8*sqrt(33) + 1/8 -1/5*sqrt(29) + 3/5]
[  0 1/4 1/2]

which, BTW, shows a problem about the reproducibility of random elements 
between Sage versions and/or platforms…

Could you post *your* random matrix ? And could you try :

M.95 = matrix(AA,3,3,[-sqrt(2) - 1, -1/4, -2*sqrt(3), 1/2, 1/8*sqrt(33) + 1/8, 
-1/5*sqrt(29) + 3/5, 0, 1/4, 1/2])
ES = M95.eigenspaces_left()

and report if you get a result ?

My point is that it is the same on Apple Mac, that it isn't related to the 
recent interface and multiprocessing problems but has just appeared with 
the 9.5 kernel beta release as it works with the 9.4 kernel.

 Hmmm… You may have obtained a “less pathological” M than I did, due to 
 possible differences in random numbers generation (notwithstanding my 
 attempt at reproducibility…). 

 What do you get for M ? I have :

 sage: with seed(0): M = matrix(AA, 3, 3, lambda u,v: AA.random_element())
 sage: M.apply_map(lambda u:u.radical_expression())
 [   -sqrt(2) - 1-1/4  -2*sqrt(3)]
 [1/2  1/8*sqrt(33) + 1/8 -1/5*sqrt(29) + 3/5]
 [  0 1/4 1/2]

 So the problem is perhaps just platform-dependent, or there is a very

 Okay. We have a problem in reproducibility : with seed(0): should 
 entail a reproducible, platform-independent result. It did not. BTW, what 
 is your platform ?

 Suggestions on how to document this and file a ticket ?

 I agree with the rest of your conclusions, but going to numerical 
 approximations then trying to somehow “recognize” the algebraics they are 
 approximations of somehow denies the whole point of working in QQbar…

 Looking at the example a bit: you'd be forcing sage to work with a huge
