# Magma V2.24-6 Patch Notes

## Arithmetic Geometry

- A bug in `RichelotIsogenies` over non-prime finite fields has been fixed.  Reported, with provided fix, by Y. Bo Ti and N. Bruin.

## Groebner Bases

- A blowup in time/memory for Groebner basis computation in the case of sparse zero-dimensional ideals of high degree has been fixed. Reported by M. Zieve.

## Groups

- A crash in the [`StandardCopy`](../FiniteGroups/AlmostSimpleGroups/related.md#function-standardcopy-monstgelt) intrinsic (group names 2A10 and 2A11) has been fixed. Bug reported by Stephen Humphries.
- A bug where `IrreducibleModules` applied to a matrix group returned G-modules with G a permutation group has been fixed. Bug reported by Derek Holt.

## Integer Ring

- The universe of the sequence returned by `Partitions` has been changed to be consistent with other sequences of sequences. Reported by M. Zieve.

## Lattices

- A possible usage of uninitialized memory in [`BKZ`](../LatticesQuadraticForms/Lattices/reduction.md#function-bkz-mtrx-rngintelt) was removed.

## Linear Codes

- A bug in the `AutomorphismGroup` and `IsEquivalent` functions for binary codes has been fixed. This bug may have caused equivalences and automorphisms to be not found.

## Matrices

- Multiplication for small matrices over the rational field has been sped up.  Issue reported by S. Elsenhans.
- The computation of `CharacteristicPolynomial` over reals/complexes now goes via [`NumericalEigenvalues`](../MatricesLinearAlgebra/Matrices/numerical-linalg.md#function-numericaleigenvalues-mtrx-rngrecom).
- A check has been added for `TensorProduct` when the result matrix would be too large.
