D.15.2.12 piecewisedegree

Usage:

piecewisedegree(f,w); f poly, w a piecewise weight given by a list, which can be computed using @ref(piecewiseWeightOfPolygon)

Return:

the piecewise degree of f, with regard to the weight w

LIB "arnold.lib";
ring R=0,(x,y),ds;
poly f = x^9+x^2*y^4+y^2*x^4+y^8+x^3*y^5+y^2*x^5;
list NP = newtonPolygon(f);
list w = piecewiseWeightOfPolygon(NP);
piecewisedegree(f,w);
