5.1.44 highcorner
Syntax:
highcorner ( ideal_expression )
highcorner ( module_expression )
Type:
poly, resp. vector
Purpose:
returns the smallest monomial not contained in
the ideal, resp. module, generated by the initial terms of the given
generators. If the generators are a standard basis,
this is also the smallest monomial not contained in the ideal, resp. module.
If the ideal, resp. module, is not zero-dimensional, 0 is returned.
Note:
Let the ideal I be given by a standard basis. Then
highcorner(I) returns 0 iff dim(I)>0 or dim(I)=-1 .
Otherwise it returns the smallest monomial m not in I which has the following
properties (with
the variables of the basering):
-
if
then
does not divide m (e.g., m=1 if the ordering is global)
-
given any set of generators
of I, let be obtained from
by deleting the terms divisible by for all i with .
Then
generate I.
Example:
ring r=0,(x,y),ds;
ideal i=x3,x2y,y3;
highcorner(std(i));
→ xy2
highcorner(std(ideal(1)));
→ 0
