Why BKZ can't run for rational matrix?
Hi, I am trying to use BKZ to run basis reduction algorithm in sagemath.
Like
new_A = A.BKZ().
But if the matrix has rational entries it will return an error.
AttributeError: 'sage.matrix.matrix_rational_dense.Matrix_rational_dense' object has no attribute 'BKZ'
If I use LLL method new_A = A.LLL().
, it can run without error.
By my limit knowledge to BKZ, it's a special case of LLL? Why LLL can run but BKZ not?
Also, BKZ's input should be any basis of a Lattice. Why limit it to integer matrix in sage?
Since it involves an (alleged) design deficiency of Sage, this question may be better aimed at sage-support, even maybe at sage-devel.
HTH,
