logarithmicForm -- creates a logarithmic form

Synopsis

Description

A logarithmic form of type (d_0,...,d_n) is a differential 1-form w that can be written as w=(prod f_i)sum df_i/f_i, where f_i is a polynomial of degree d_i. This routine creates such a logarithmic form using homogeneous polynomials. When using a list L of length two, the differential form is called rational.


In this example we generate a random logarithmic form in affine 3-dimensional space with degrees (1,1,2).

i1 : random logarithmicForm(2,{1,1,2},"a")

o1 : DiffAlgForm

In this example we generate a generic rational form in the projective plane of type (1,1).

i2 : logarithmicForm(2,{1,1},"a",Projective => true)

o2 = ((a0 a2 a1  - a1 a0 a2 )x  + (a0 a2 a1  - a1 a0 a2 )x )dx  + ((-
         1  0  1     0  1  1  1      1  0  2     0  1  2  2   0

     a0 a2 a1  + a1 a0 a2 )x  + (a0 a1 a2  - a0 a1 a2 )x )dx  + ((- a0 a2 a1

         0  1  2  0        1  2  1     1  1  2  1   2

o2 : DiffAlgForm

In the following example, we produce a logarithmic form that descend to projective space.

i3 : l = random logarithmicForm(2,{1,1},"a",Projective => true)

o3 = (9x  - 11x )dx  + (- 9x  - 19x )dx  + (11x  + 19x )dx
        1      2   0        0      2   1       0      1   2

o3 : DiffAlgForm
i4 : (radial 2)_l

o4 = 0
