    Computing Hilbert Class Polynomials

    We present and analyze two algorithms for computing the Hilbert class polynomial HDH_D . The first is a p-adic lifting algorithm for inert primes p in the order of discriminant D < 0. The second is an improved Chinese remainder algorithm which uses the class group action on CM-curves over finite fields. Our run time analysis gives tighter bounds for the complexity of all known algorithms for computing HDH_D, and we show that all methods have comparable run times

    Numerical verification of the Cohen-Lenstra-Martinet heuristics and of Greenberg's pp-rationality conjecture

    In this paper we make a series of numerical experiments to support Greenberg's pp-rationality conjecture, we present a family of pp-rational biquadratic fields and we find new examples of pp-rational multiquadratic fields. In the case of multiquadratic and multicubic fields we show that the conjecture is a consequence of the Cohen-Lenstra-Martinet heuristic and of the conjecture of Hofmann and Zhang on the pp-adic regulator, and we bring new numerical data to support the extensions of these conjectures. We compare the known algorithmic tools and propose some improvements
