Add cmr (Combinatorial Matrix Recognition library) and Cython interface

[mkoeppe]

📚 Description

• Adding an SPKG for the Combinatorial Matrix Recognition Library (successor of TUtest) by Matthias Walter
  https://discopt.github.io/cmr/, and dependencies
• Cython interface in sage.libs.cmr
• New matrix backend class Matrix_cmr_chr_sparse
• Classes for decomposition nodes (CMR_DEC_...)
• New methods for Matrix_integer_dense along the lines of the existing methods smith_form etc.; delegate to Matrix_cmr_chr_sparse methods
• Definitions of all terms
• Cite literature
• Examples and tests for all methods/classes
• Link to CMR documentation - https://discopt.github.io/cmr/ (maybe use Package breathe - Sphinx plugin for project documentation using Doxygen #37577)
• Methods for matroids
• Subclasses of Matroid corresponding node types of the Seymour decomposition
• Connect to modular decomposition of graphs
• Connect to sage.graphs.connectivity.spqr_tree?
• Matrix class that is backed by a DecompositionNode
• Graph backend class
• Wrap remaining functions of CMR
• pip-installable package sagemath-cmr (depending on sagemath-modules, Modularization of sagelib: Distributions sagemath-{brial,combinat,eclib,flint,gap,giac,glpk,graphs,groups,homfly,lcalc,libbraiding,libecm,linbox,modules,mpmath,ntl,pari,plot,polyhedra,schemes,singular,standard-no-symbolics,symbolics} #35095)

Follow-ups:

• sage.tensor.modules: Add methods is_unimodular etc. #38139

📝 Checklist

• The title is concise, informative, and self-explanatory.
• The description explains in detail what this PR is about.
• I have linked a relevant issue or discussion.
• I have created tests covering the changes.
• I have updated the documentation accordingly.

In -minimal configurations, our boost is too old or too cropped

[mkoeppe]

Rebased away from the boost upgrade, updated CMR to latest

[mkoeppe]

I've adapted the interface to the new CMR version.

There are a few doctest failures that I don't understand

Also I haven't done anything yet on the Python side about the new terminology "equimodular" that CMR now uses.

[xuluze]

I have encountered the following underflow issue in the parent_rows_and_columns function for a children node.

sage: from sage.matrix.matrix_cmr_sparse import Matrix_cmr_chr_sparse
sage: R12_large = Matrix_cmr_chr_sparse(MatrixSpace(ZZ, 9, 12, sparse=True), [[1, -1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1], 
....: [0, 0, 0, 1, -1, 0, 0, 0, 1 , 1, 1, 1], 
....: [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1], 
....: [ 1,  0,  1,  0,  0,  0,  0,  0,  1,  1,  0,  0],
....: [ 0,  1,  1,  0,  0,  0,  0,  0,  0,  0, -1, -1],
....: [ 0,  0,  0,  1,  0,  1,  0,  0,  1,  1,  0,  0],
....: [ 0,  0,  0,  0,  1,  1,  0,  0,  0,  0, -1, -1],
....: [ 0,  0,  0,  0,  0,  0,  1,  0,  1,  0,  1,  0],
....: [ 0,  0,  0,  0,  0,  0,  0,  1,  0,  1,  0,  1]])
sage: result, certificate = R12_large.is_totally_unimodular(certificate=True)
sage: certificate._children()[0].parent_rows_and_columns()
((2, 7, 8, 0, 3), (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 18446744073709551615))

Any ideas for how to fix it? Thank you!

[mkoeppe]

I see the same on my machine

[discopt]

I'll can have a look. At least I cannot reproduce it standalone by reading from a file.

[mkoeppe]

this number is uint64_t(-1)
