Abstract
We present an algorithm to compute a higher dimensional analogue of modular polynomials. This higher dimensional analogue, the ‘set of Hilbert modular polynomials’, concerns cyclic isogenies of principally polarised abelian varieties with maximal real multiplication by a fixed totally real number field . In the 2-dimensional case with we also provide an implementation together with some optimisations specific to this case. We also explain applications of this algorithm to point counting, walking on isogeny graphs, and computing class polynomials.
