5.1.138 slimgb

Syntax:

slimgb ( ideal_expression)
slimgb ( module_expression)
Type:
ideal or module
Purpose:
slim Groebner bases

Returns a Groebner basis of an ideal or module with respect to the monomial ordering of the basering (which has to be global).

Note:
The algorithm is designed to keep polynomials slim (short with small coefficients). For details see http://www.mathematik.uni-kl.de/~zca/Reports_on_ca/35/paper_35_full.ps.gz. A reduced Groebner basis is returned if option(redSB) is set (see option(redSB)). To view the progress of long running computations, use option(prot) (see option(prot)).

Example:
 
  ring r=2,(x,y,z),lp;
  poly s1=z*(x*y+1);
  poly s2=x2+x;
  poly s3=y2+y;
  ideal i=s1,s2,s3;
  slimgb(i);
==> _[1]=y2+y
==> _[2]=x2+x
==> _[3]=yz+z
==> _[4]=xz+z
