ApCoCoA-1:LinSyz.BettyNumbers

LinSyz.BettyNumbers

Computes all Betty numbers of a module generated by linear forms.

Syntax

LinSyz.BettyNumbers(M:MODULE):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.

This command computes all Betty numbers of a given module which is generated by vectors consisting of linear forms. Be aware of the fact that this is not well tested and may contain bugs! Also the linear forms may not have any constant component. So if your system has some, you have to homogenize the system first via introducing a new indeterminate.

• @param M A module for which all Betty numbers will be computed.

• @return A list of all Betty numbers of M. The first indeterminate returned contains the number of generators, such that this command does not produce conflicts with LinSyz.Resolution, which returns the interreduced generators first.

Example

Use P::=QQ[x,y,z];
M:=Module([[x+y+z,x+y+z,x-y+z],[x-y,y-4z,x+2z],[x,y,z]]);
BettiDiagram(M);
