inhomogeneousSystemOfParameters -- generates an inhomogeneous system of parameters

Synopsis

Description

Given a ring and an ideal, inhomogeneousSystemOfParameters attempts to generate an inhomogeneous system of parameters contained in I. The algorithm is based on one found in Chapter 5.5 of W. Vasconcelos' book: Computational Methods in Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry. 
i1 : A = ZZ/5051[x, y, z];
 
i2 : I = ideal (x, x*y, y*z);

o2 : Ideal of A
 
i3 : X = inhomogeneousSystemOfParameters(I,A)

o3 = | yz+x xy |

o3 : Matrix A  <--- A
 
i4 : isRegularSequence(X,A)

o4 = true
Here are examples with optional inputs: 
i5 : A = ZZ/5051[x, y, z];
 
i6 : I = ideal (x, x*y, y*z);

o6 : Ideal of A
 
i7 : inhomogeneousSystemOfParameters(I,A,Attempts=>1,Bound=>100,Sparseness=>.9)

o7 : Matrix A  <--- 0
Here are examples with the optional input Maximal => false: 
i8 : x = symbol x; y = symbol y;
 
i10 : n = 2;
 
i11 : A = ZZ/101[x_(1,1)..x_(n,n),y_(1,1)..y_(n,n)];
 
i12 : X = transpose genericMatrix(A,n,n);
