‣ EfficientNormalSubgroups( G ) | ( function ) |
‣ EfficientNormalSubgroups( G, k ) | ( function ) |
Inputs a prime-power group G and, optionally, a positive integer k. The default is k=4. The function returns a list of normal subgroups N in G such that the Poincare series for G equals the Poincare series for the direct product (N × (G/N)) up to degree k.
Examples: 1
‣ ExpansionOfRationalFunction( f, n ) | ( function ) |
Inputs a positive integer n and a rational function f(x)=p(x)/q(x) where the degree of the polynomial p(x) is less than that of q(x). It returns a list [a_0 , a_1 , a_2 , a_3 , ... ,a_n] of the first n+1 coefficients of the infinite expansion
f(x) = a_0 + a_1x + a_2x^2 + a_3x^3 + ... .
‣ PoincareSeries( G, n ) | ( function ) |
‣ PoincareSeries( R, n ) | ( function ) |
‣ PoincareSeries( L, n ) | ( function ) |
‣ PoincareSeries( G ) | ( function ) |
Inputs a finite p-group G and a positive integer n. It returns a quotient of polynomials f(x)=P(x)/Q(x) whose coefficient of x^k equals the rank of the vector space H_k(G,Z_p) for all k in the range k=1 to k=n. (The second input variable can be omitted, in which case the function tries to choose a "reasonable" value for n. For 2-groups the function PoincareSeriesLHS(G) can be used to produce an f(x) that is correct in all degrees.)
In place of the group G the function can also input (at least n terms of) a minimal mod p resolution R for G.
Alternatively, the first input variable can be a list L of integers. In this case the coefficient of x^k in f(x) is equal to the (k+1)st term in the list.
Examples: 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9
‣ PoincareSeriesPrimePart( G, p, n ) | ( function ) |
Inputs a finite group G, a prime p, and a positive integer n. It returns a quotient of polynomials f(x)=P(x)/Q(x) whose coefficient of x^k equals the rank of the vector space H_k(G,Z_p) for all k in the range k=1 to k=n.
The efficiency of this function needs to be improved.
‣ PoincareSeriesLHS | ( global variable ) |
Inputs a finite 2-group G and returns a quotient of polynomials f(x)=P(x)/Q(x) whose coefficient of x^k equals the rank of the vector space H_k(G,Z_2) for all k.
This function was written by Paul Smith. It use the Singular system for commutative algebra.
Examples:
‣ Prank( G ) | ( function ) |
