Multivariate factorization internally uses random evaluation points. Therefore the way the factors are ordered is not necessarily the same for different initial random seeds.

When adding a new polynomial, the factorizing Gröbner basis algorithm proceeds by factorizing this polynomial,say f=f1f2, into its factors f1 and f2. Then it reenters, again, this time for

V(I,f1)   and   V(I,f2) \ V(f1).

Thus the algorithm might return a decomposition into a larger or smaller number of components, depending on the random seed.


General remarks on facstd:

  • The intersection of the components returned by facstd has the same radical as the original ideal.
  • The decomposition returned by facstd is usually not a complete decomposition into the components of the variety, it only cuts the decomposition problem into smaller and hence easier problems.
