Package alggeozd

This page describes the alggeozd package. The package contains various functions for checking algebraic and geometric property of zero-dimensional schemes and related computations. For a complete list of functions, see Category:Package alggeozd.

Alg-Geo Properties

Let $K$ be a field,

Package Discription

The zerodim package provides functions for computing the introduced invariants of zero-dimensional schemes. In the graded case the package also provides functions for computations of the Hilbert functions of these invariants. Alias of the package is ZD.

MinQuotIdeal

MinQuotIdeal(P, I, J): computes a min. homog. system
          of generators of homog. ideal (I+J)/I.
     input: P=K[x[1..N]], I and J homog. ideals of P
     output: list of polys

Example for computations

Now let us apply the zerodim package to some concrete examples. Recall that the alias of the package is ZD, and so to call a function from this package in computation one uses ZD.functions-name.

Consider the first example, where X is the scheme defined by the homogeneous ideal Ix.

Use P ::= QQ[X[0..2]];
Ix := ideal(X[0]*X[1] -X[1]^2, X[1]^2*X[2] -X[1]*X[2]^2, 2*X[0]^2*X[2] -3*X[0]*X[2]^2 +X[2]^3);

Then we calculate the differents of X as follows:
