BigObject Ideal

from application ideal

An ideal in a polynomial ring.

Properties of an ideal computed via commutative algebra.


DEPTH

The depth of the ideal.

Type:
Int
depends on extension:

DIM

The dimension of the ideal, i.e. the Krull dimension of Polynomial ring/Ideal.

Type:
Int
depends on extension:

GROEBNER

Subobject containing properties that depend on the monomial ordering of the ring.

Type:
depends on extension:

HILBERT_POLYNOMIAL

The Hilbert polynomial of the ideal. For toric ideals this is linked with the Ehrhart polynomial.

Type:

HOMOGENEOUS

True if the ideal can be generated by homogeneous polynomials.

Type:

MONOMIAL

True if the ideal can be generated by monomials.

Type:

N_VARIABLES

The number of variables of the polynomial ring containing the ideal.

Type:
Int

PRIMARY

True if the ideal is a primary ideal. I.e. its RADICAL is PRIME and in the quotient ring by the ideal every zero divisor is nilpotent.

Type:

PRIMARY_DECOMPOSITION

An array containing the primary decomposition of the given ideal, i.e. the contained ideals are PRIMARY and their intersection is the given ideal.

Type:
depends on extension:

PRIME

True if the is ideal a prime ideal.

Type:

RADICAL

The radical of the ideal.

Type:
depends on extension:

ZERO

True if the ideal is the zero ideal.

Type:

Properties defining an ideal.


GENERATORS

A set of generators usually given by the user and not unique.

Type:

SATURATION

UNDOCUMENTED

from extension:

SOLVE

UNDOCUMENTED

from extension:

contains_monomial(String s)

Check via saturation whether the ideal contains a monomial. Returns a monomial from the ideal or the trivial monomial if there is none.

Parameters:

String s: Optional term order (see ORDER_NAME) for intermediate Groebner bases, default: “dp”

Returns:
