Fast computation of a Groebner basis. What is possible?

I need to compute a Groebner basis of 18 polynomials in 19 variables the terms of which have degree at most 3. My aim is to exploit a symmetry in a PDE problem and I am not an expert in algebra or ...

Can Gröbner bases be used to compute solutions to large, real-world problems?

In particular, suppose I have an affine algebraic variety over $\mathbb{R}^n$ described by generators of a radical ideal $I$ and I want to find (perhaps not all of the) points in the variety. Several ...

Residues of $\frac{1}{\prod_{i=1}^n (x-P_i)^{e_i}}$

This is a problem occurring in my research about deformations of $\mathbb{Z}/p^n$-covers over a ring of power series. Given an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$, suppose $1< ...

PBW theorem over a Q-algebra, without freeness or flatness

Let $k$ be a commutative ring with $1$. Let $L$ be a $k$-Lie algebra, which is not necessarily free as a $k$-module. Let $S\left(L\right)$ denote the symmetric algebra of $L$ (over $k$), constructed ...

Given a zero-dimensional ideal $(f_1,...,f_n)$, is the ideal $(f_1-\alpha_1,...,f_n-\alpha_n)$ also zero-dimensional?

Suppose you have a zero-dimensional ideal $I=(f_1,...,f_n)$ in a polynomial ring $R=k[x_1,...,x_n]$ over a field $k$, so that $\dim_k(R/I)<\infty$. Take indeterminates $\alpha_1,...,\alpha_n$ and ...

Dimension of a homogeneous polynomial system

Let $m\geq4$ be an even integer, $V\subset\mathbb{C}^{m-1}$ be the solution set of the following polynomial equations: \begin{cases} &\sum\limits_{s=1}^{2t-1}z_sz_{2t-s}+\sum\limits_{s=2t+1}^{m-1}...

Differential ideal membership problem

We know that in the ordinary algebra ideal case, the ideal membership problem can be solved by the Grobner Base theory, then, is there a counterpart theory in the differential ideal case? To be ...

Existence of a real-valued solution to system of multivariate polynomial equations

Given a system of multivariate, polynomial equations, is there a way to determine if it has a solution in a given field (for instance the set of all reals). I don't care what the solution is, I just ...

How can I include irreducibility in a Groebner basis calculation?

I'm trying to prove impossibility of certain systems of differential/polynomial equations using Groebner basis techniques. For example, consider the equation $qn = mf$, where each of the variables ...

Efficiency of Groebner basis for constraints of the form $(a_i x_i+b_i)(a_j x_j+b_j)$

This is based on numerical experiments in sage. Let $K$ be a ring and define the ideal where each polynomial is of the form $(a_i x_i+b_i)(a_j x_j+b_j)$ for constant $a_i,b_i,a_j,b_j$. Q1 Is it true ...

Polynomial constraints triggered by irreducibility [closed]

I've come across an interesting connection between irreducible polynomials and polynomial constraints. For example, consider the basic quadratic: $$af^2 + bf + c = 0$$ If we're working in a ring, ...

Maximal elements for ideals and subrings ordered by inclusion with fixed number of minimal generating polynomials

Let $R=\mathbb{R}[X_1,\dots,X_n]$, and $$\mathfrak{I}_d=\{ \text{ideals for which there is minimal generating system with $d$ elements} \}\setminus \{\text{ ideals generated by $d$ monomials}\}$$ ...
