NCo.FindPolynomials

Find polynomials with specified alphabet (set of indeterminates) from a LIST of non-commutative polynomials.

Syntax

NCo.FindPolynomials(Alphabet:STRING, Polys:LIST):LIST

Description

• @param Alphabet: a STRING, which is the specified alphabet.

• @param Polys: a LIST of non-commutative polynomials. Note that each polynomial is represented as a LIST of monomials, which are LISTs of the form [C, W] where W is a word in <X> and C is the coefficient of W. Each word in <X> is represented as a STRING. For example, the word xy^2x is represented as "xyyx", and the identity is represented as the empty string "". Thus, the polynomial f=xy-y+1 in K<x,y> is represented as F:=[[1,"xy"], [-1, "y"], [1,""]]. The zero polynomial 0 is represented as the empty LIST [].

• @return: a LIST of polynomials whose indeterminates are in Alphabet.
