A(2) is steenrod algebra generated by sq1, sq2,sq4 with Adem relations, we knew A(2) has dimension 64, how to calculate the basis like quotient algebra A(2)/A(2){sq1} and A(2)/A(2){sq1,sq2sq3} and A(2)/A(2){sq1, sq7,sq3sq7+sq4sq6} in Sage? Thanks !
Quotients like this are not well implemented in Sage, and in particular, there is no simple way to compute a basis. Examples of ways in which the implementation is not great:
sage: A2 = SteenrodAlgebra(profile=(3,2,1))
sage: s1 = A2.Sq(1)
sage: I = A2.ideal(s1)
sage: I
Twosided Ideal (Sq(1)) of sub-Hopf algebra of mod 2 Steenrod algebra, milnor basis, profile function [3, 2, 1]
sage: s1 in I

NotImplementedError:
sage: R = A2.quotient(I)
sage: R(s1) == 0
False
