NC.Multiply

Multiplication of two polynomials in a free monoid ring.
Syntax
          
NC.Multiply(F1:LIST, F2:LIST):LIST

          

Description
Please note: The function(s) explained on this page is/are using the ApCoCoAServer. You will have to start the ApCoCoAServer in order to use it/them.

Please set ring environment coefficient fieldK, alphabet (or set of indeterminates) X and ordering via the functions NC.SetFp, NC.SetX and NC.SetOrdering, respectively, before calling the function. The default coefficient field is Q. The default ordering is length-lexicographic ordering ("LLEX"). For more information, please check the relevant functions.

Example
NC.SetFp(3);
NC.SetX("abc");
NC.RingEnv();
Coefficient ring : Fp = Z/(3)
Alphabet : abc
Ordering : LLEX
-------------------------------
F1 := [[2,"a"],[1,""]];
F2 := [[2,"b"],[1,"ba"]];
NC.Multiply(F1,F2); -- over F3
[[2, "aba"], [1, "ab"], [1, "ba"], [2, "b"]]
-------------------------------
NC.Multiply(F2,F1);
[[2, "baa"], [2, "ba"], [2, "b"]]
-------------------------------
NC.Multiply(F1,[]);
[ ]
-------------------------------
NC.Multiply([],F1);
[ ]
-------------------------------
NC.Multiply([],[]);
[ ]
-------------------------------
NC.UnsetFp();
NC.RingEnv();
Coefficient ring : Q
Alphabet : abc
Ordering : LLEX
-------------------------------
NC.Multiply(F1,F2); -- over Q
[[2, "aba"], [4, "ab"], [1, "ba"], [2, "b"]]
-------------------------------
NC.Multiply(F2,F1);
[[2, "baa"], [5, "ba"], [2, "b"]]
-------------------------------
