7.5.15 ncfrac_lib

Library:
ncfrac.lib
Purpose:
object-oriented interface for olga.lib
Author:
Johannes Hoffmann, email: johannes.hoffmann at math.rwth-aachen.de

Overview:
This library introduces a new type: ncfrac.
This type wraps the data defining a (non-commutative) fraction in an Ore localization of a G-algebra as in olga.lib.
An element of type ncfrac has five members:
- polys lnum, lden, rnum, rden
- ncloc loc

Operations:
string(ncfrac);
give a string representation of the data describing the fraction print(ncfrac);
prints the string representation of the fraction
status(ncfrac);
report on the status/validity of the fraction
test(ncfrac);
check if the fraction is valid

Infix operations:
ncfrac == ncfrac;
compare two fractions
ncfrac != ncfrac;
compare two fractions
ncfrac + ncfrac;
add two fractions
ncfrac - ncfrac
subtract two fractions
ncfrac * ncfrac
multiply two fractions
ncfrac / ncfrac
divide two fractions
ncfrac = int/number/poly
create a fraction with:
- left and right denominator equal to 1
- left and right numerator determined by the input - localization data describing the trivial monoidal localization at 1 ncfrac = vector
create a fraction from a vector v with unspecified localization such that lden,lnum,rnum,rden = v[1],v[2],v[3],v[4]
(note: without specifying a localization afterwards this results is an invalid fraction)
ncfrac = list
create a fraction from a list L as follows: - try to create a fraction from L[1] as above - if L[2] is of type ncloc set the localization of the fraction to L[2]

Procedures:

7.5.15.0. hasLeftDenom  check if the given fraction has a left representation
7.5.15.0. hasRightDenom  check if the given fraction has a right representation
7.5.15.0. isZeroNcfrac  check if the given fraction is equal to zero
7.5.15.0. isOneNcfrac  check if the given fraction is equal to one
7.5.15.0. zeroNcfrac  create the fraction equal to zero in the given localization
7.5.15.0. oneNcfrac  create the fraction equal to one in the given localization
7.5.15.0. ensureLeftNcfrac  compute a left representation of the given fraction if it does not have one
7.5.15.0. ensureRightNcfrac  compute a right representation of the given fraction if it does not have one
7.5.15.0. negateNcfrac  compute the additive inverse of the given fraction
7.5.15.0. isInvertibleNcfrac  check if the given fraction is invertible (note: see the description of isInvertibleLeftFraction from olga.lib for specific behaviour)
7.5.15.0. invertNcfrac  compute the multiplicative inverse of the given fraction (note: see the description of invertLeftFraction from olga.lib for specific behaviour)
7.5.15.0. testNcfrac  execute a series of internal testing procedures
7.5.15.0. testNcfracExamples  execute the examples of all procedures in this library
