Data.Complex.Cyclotomic

Description

The cyclotomic numbers are a subset of the complex numbers with the following properties:

  1. The cyclotomic numbers are represented exactly, enabling exact computations and equality comparisons.
  2. The cyclotomic numbers contain the Gaussian rationals (complex numbers of the form p + q i with p and q rational). As a consequence, the cyclotomic numbers are a dense subset of the complex numbers.
  3. The cyclotomic numbers contain the square roots of all rational numbers.
  4. The cyclotomic numbers form a field: they are closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
  5. The cyclotomic numbers contain the sine and cosine of all rational multiples of pi.
  6. The cyclotomic numbers can be thought of as the rational field extended with nth roots of unity for arbitrarily large integers n.

Floating point numbers do not do well with equality comparison:

(sqrt 2 + sqrt 3)^2 == 5 + 2 * sqrt 6
 -> False

Data.Complex.Cyclotomic represents these numbers exactly, allowing equality comparison:

(sqrtRat 2 + sqrtRat 3)^2 == 5 + 2 * sqrtRat 6
 -> True

Cyclotomics can be exported as inexact complex numbers using the toComplex function:

e 6
 -> -e(3)^2
real $ e 6
 -> 1/2
imag $ e 6
 -> -1/2*e(12)^7 + 1/2*e(12)^11
imag (e 6) == sqrtRat 3 / 2
 -> True
toComplex $ e 6
 -> 0.5000000000000003 :+ 0.8660254037844384

The algorithms for cyclotomic numbers are adapted from code by Martin Schoenert and Thomas Breuer in the GAP project http://www.gap-system.org/ (in particular source files gap4r4/src/cyclotom.c and gap4r4/lib/cyclotom.gi).

Synopsis

Documentation

data Cyclotomic Source #

A cyclotomic number.

Instances

Eq Cyclotomic Source # 
Fractional Cyclotomic Source # 
Num Cyclotomic Source #

abs and signum are partial functions. A cyclotomic number is not guaranteed to have a cyclotomic absolute value. When defined, signum c is the complex number with magnitude 1 that has the same argument as c; signum c = c / abs c.

Show Cyclotomic Source # 

i :: Cyclotomic Source #

The square root of -1.

e :: Integer -> Cyclotomic Source #

The primitive nth root of unity. For example, e(4) = i is the primitive 4th root of unity, and e(5) = exp(2*pi*i/5) is the primitive 5th root of unity. In general, e n = exp(2*pi*i/n).

sqrtInteger :: Integer -> Cyclotomic Source #

The square root of an Integer.

sqrtRat :: Rational -> Cyclotomic Source #

The square root of a Rational number.

sinDeg :: Rational -> Cyclotomic Source #

Sine function with argument in degrees.

cosDeg :: Rational -> Cyclotomic Source #

Cosine function with argument in degrees.
