MvPolynomial Equiv #
Equivalences for multivariable polynomials, including finSuccEquivNth.
The algebra isomorphism between multivariable polynomials in Fin (n + 1) and polynomials over
multivariable polynomials in Fin n, where the p-th (pivot) variable is the indeterminate X.
finSuccEquiv is the special case when p = 0.
Equations
Instances For
The coefficient of m in the i-th coefficient of finSuccEquivNth R p f equals the
coefficient of m.insertNth p i in f.
The evaluation of f at Fin.insertNth p y s equals the evaluation at y of the polynomial
obtained by partially evaluating finSuccEquivNth R p f at s.
A monomial index m is in the support of the i-th coefficient of finSuccEquivNth R p f if
and only if m.insertNth p i is in the support of f.
The totalDegree of a multivariable polynomial f is at least i more than the totalDegree of
the ith coefficient of finSuccEquivNth R p applied to f, if this is nonzero.
The support of finSuccEquivNth R p f equals the support of f projected onto the p-th
variable.
The degree of finSuccEquivNth R p f equals the p-th degree of f.
The natDegree of finSuccEquivNth R p f equals the p-th natDegree of f.
The degree of j in the ith coefficient of finSuccEquivNth R p f is at most the degree of
j.succ in f.
Consider a multivariate polynomial φ whose variables are indexed by Option σ,
and suppose that σ ≃ Fin n.
Then one may view φ as a polynomial over MvPolynomial (Fin n) R, by
- renaming the variables via
Option σ ≃ Fin (n+1), and then singling out thep-th variable viaMvPolynomial.finSuccEquivNth R p; - first viewing it as polynomial over
MvPolynomial σ RviaMvPolynomial.optionEquivLeft, and then renaming the variables.
This theorem shows that both constructions are the same.
