Program Mink_red

Usage

Mink_red 'file' [-t]
file: matrix_TYP containing a set of symmetric positive definite matrices.

Description

Reduces all matrices in file by the Minkowski reduction algorithm.

Options

-t    : Give the transforming matrices as well, i.e. matrices
        T satisfying T^tr * F_old * T = F_new.

Remarks

WARNING: The algorithm might be very slow for some examples. In almost all examples it pays to reduce the matrices by Pair_red before.
