Genera of Integer Lattices
Two $\mathbb{Z}$-lattices $M$ and $N$ are said to be in the same genus if their completions $M \otimes \mathbb{Z}_p$ and $N \otimes \mathbb{Z}_p$ are isometric for all prime numbers $p$ as well as $M \otimes \mathbb{R} \cong N\otimes \mathbb{R}$.
The genus of a $\mathbb{Z}$-lattice is encoded in its Conway-Sloane genus symbol. The genus symbol itself is a collection of its local genus symbols. See [CS99] Chapter 15 for the definitions. Note that genera for non-integral lattices are supported.
The class ZZGenus supports genera of $\mathbb{Z}$-lattices.
ZZGenus — TypeZZGenusA collection of local genus symbols (at primes) and a signature pair. Together they represent the genus of a non-degenerate integer_lattice.
Creation of Genera
From an integral Lattice
genus — Methodgenus(L::ZZLat) -> ZZGenusReturn the genus of the lattice L.
From a gram matrix
genus — Methodgenus(A::MatElem) -> ZZGenusReturn the genus of a $\mathbb Z$-lattice with gram matrix A.
Enumeration of genus symbols
integer_genera — Methodinteger_genera(sig_pair::Vector{Int}, determinant::RationalUnion;
min_scale::RationalUnion = min(one(QQ), QQ(abs(determinant))),
max_scale::RationalUnion = max(one(QQ), QQ(abs(determinant))),
even=false) -> Vector{ZZGenus}Return a list of all genera with the given conditions. Genera of non-integral $\mathbb Z$-lattices are also supported.
Arguments

The genus symbol of a component p^m A for odd prime = p is of the form (m,n,d), where
m= valuation of the componentn= rank of Ad = det(A) \in \{1,u\}for a normalized quadratic non-residueu.
The genus symbol of a component 2^m A is of the form (m, n, s, d, o), where
m= valuation of the componentn= rank ofAd=det(A)in{1,3,5,7}s= 0 (or 1) if even (or odd)o= oddity ofA(= 0 if s = 0) inZ/8Z= the trace of the diagonalization ofA
The genus symbol is a list of such symbols (ordered by m) for each of the Jordan blocks A_1,...,A_t.

Based on O'Meara Integral Representations of Quadratic Forms Over Local Fields Note that for p == 2 there is a typo in O'Meara Theorem 3 (V). The correct statement is (V) $2^i(1+4\omega) \to \mathfrak{L}_{i+1}/\mathfrak{l}_{[i]}$.
