Feb 25, 2014 at 10:30 comment added Brendan McKay Say $P$ is a polynomial in $x$ and $y$. To make a sorted list of the coefficients: sort(subs(x=1,y=1,[op(expand(P))]),`>`). Then use add() to sum the first so many entries.
Feb 25, 2014 at 9:38 comment added Seva Very nice! By a chance, do you use Maple? I wonder how with Maple can one find the sum of, say, 55 largest coefficients of a polynomial.
