Implement matrices with elements in the cyclotomic field #13

Closed jdbancal closed 2 years ago

jdbancal commented 2 years ago

This would enable RepLAB to perform exact computations involving representations/characters.

One of our collaborators has an implementation lifted from GAP System, see https://github.com/denisrosset/cyclo, see https://www.gap-system.org/Manuals/doc/ref/chap18.html.

SAGE had an implementation, see https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/8327 and the top-level note on https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/number_fields/sage/rings/universal_cyclotomic_field.html.

@denisrosset: Do you agree this is done, or is there something more to be done here?
