Overview:

Suppose A is an affine domain over a perfect field.
This library implements a modular strategy for finding the normalization of A. Following [1], the idea is to apply the normalization algorithm given in [2] over finite fields and lift the results via Chinese remaindering and rational reconstruction as described in [3]. This approach is inherently parallel.
The strategy is available both as a randomized and as a verified algorithm.
