Computing class groups by induction with generalised norm relations

We introduce a generalisation of norm relations in the group algebra Q[G], where G is a finite group. We give some properties of these relations, and use them to obtain relations between the S-unit groups of different subfields of the same Galois extension of Q, of Galois group G. Then we deduce an algorithm to compute the class groups of some number fields by reducing the problem to fields of lower degree. We compute the class groups of some large number fields.

An algorithm to compute Selmer groups via resolutions by permutations modules

Given a number field with absolute Galois group $\mathcal{G}$, a finite Galois module $M$, and a Selmer system $\mathcal{L}$, this article gives a method to compute Sel$_\mathcal{L}$, the Selmer group of $M$ attached to $\mathcal{L}$. First we describe an algorithm to obtain a resolution of $M$ where the morphisms are given by Hecke operators. Then we construct another group $H^1_S(\mathcal{G}, M)$ and we prove, using the properties of Hecke operators, that $H^1_S(\mathcal{G}, M)$ is a Selmer group containing Sel$_\mathcal{L}$. Then, we discuss the time complexity of this method.
