17// The input matrix A is an n x m matrix of rank m (so n >= m), and D
18// is a multiple of the determinant of the lattice L spanned by the
19// rows of A.  W is computed as the Hermite Normal Form of A; that is,
20// W is the unique m x m matrix whose rows span L, such that
21
22//   - W is lower triangular,
23//   - the diagonal entries are positive,
24//   - any entry below the diagonal is a non-negative number
25//     strictly less than the diagonal entry in its column.
26
27// Currently, this is implemented using the algorithm of [P. Domich,
28// R. Kannan and L. Trotter, Math. Oper. Research 12:50-59, 1987].
