Description

A function to enumerate totally real number fields of a given degree up to a given discriminant bound. https://arxiv.org/abs/0802.0194

Apart from rust being faster than sage, it would be useful if it could run in parallel.

Research direction

Start with the Sage reference implementation, enumerate_totallyreal_fields_all, and read the linked paper at arxiv.org/abs/0802.0194. Determine the Rust entry point for number-field algorithms and define how enumeration by degree and discriminant bound should work, including parallel execution; done means a working equivalent with suitable validation.
