We give examples of smooth plane quartics over $\mathbb{Q}$ with complex multiplication over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ by a maximal order with primitive CM type. We describe the required algorithms as we go, these involve the reduction of period matrices, the fast computation of Dixmier-Ohno invariants, and reconstruction from these invariants. Finally, we discuss some of the reduction properties of the curves that we obtain.
Jacobi's $\theta$ function has numerous applications in mathematics and computer science; a naive algorithm allows the computation of $\theta(z,\tau)$, for $z, \tau$ verifying certain conditions, with precision $P$ in $O(\mathcal{M}(P) \sqrt{P})$ bit operations, where $\mathcal{M}(P)$ denotes the number of operations needed to multiply two complex $P$-bit numbers. We generalize an algorithm which computes specific values of the $\theta$ function (the \textit{theta-constants}) in asymptotically faster time; this gives us an algorithm to compute $\theta(z, \tau)$ with precision $P$ in $O(\mathcal{M}(P) \log P)$ bit operations, for any $\tau \in \mathcal{F}$ and $z$ reduced using the quasi-periodicity of $\theta$.
