ApCoCoA-1:NC.IsHomog
NC.IsHomog
Checks whether a polynomial of a list of polynomials is homogeneous over a free associative K-algebra.
Syntax
NC.IsHomog(F:LIST):BOOL
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 field K, alphabet (or indeterminates) X and ordering through the functions NC.SetFp(Prime), NC.SetX(X) and NC.SetOrdering(Ordering), respectively, before calling the function. Default coefficient field is Q. Default ordering is length-lexicographic ordering ("LLEX"). For more information, please check the relevant functions.
@param F: a polynomial or a LIST of polynomials in K<X>. Each polynomial is represented as a LIST of LISTs, which are pairs of form [C, W] where C is a coefficient and W is a word (or term). Each term is represented as a STRING. For example, xy^2x is represented as "xyyx", unit is represented as an empty string "". Then, polynomial F=xy-y+1 is represented as F:=[[1,"xy"], [-1, "y"], [1,""]]. 0 polynomial is represented as an empty LIST [].
@return: a BOOL value which is True if F is homogeneous and False otherwise. Note that if F is a set of homogeneous polynomials, then F generates a homogeneous system. It is false contrarily.
Example
NC.SetX(<quotes>xy</quotes>); F1 := [[1,<quotes>x</quotes>], [1,<quotes>y</quotes>]]; F2 := [[1,<quotes>xx</quotes>],[1,<quotes>xy</quotes>],[1,<quotes>x</quotes>]]; F := [F1,F2]; NC.IsHomog(F); False ------------------------------- NC.IsHomog(F1); True ------------------------------- NC.IsHomog(F2); False -------------------------------
