RegularChains[MatrixTools]

 LowerEchelonForm
 lower echelon form of a matrix modulo a regular chain

 Calling Sequence LowerEchelonForm(A, rc, R)

Parameters

 A - square Matrix with coefficients in the ring of fractions of R rc - regular chain of R R - polynomial ring

Description

 • The command LowerEchelonForm(A, rc, R) returns a list of pairs $\left[{B}_{i},{\mathrm{rc}}_{i}\right]$ where ${\mathrm{rc}}_{i}$ is a regular chain, and ${B}_{i}$ is the lower echelon form of A modulo the saturated ideal of rc_i.
 • All the returned regular chains ${\mathrm{rc}}_{i}$ form a triangular decomposition of rc (in the sense of Kalkbrener).
 • It is assumed that rc is strongly normalized.
 • The algorithm is an adaptation of the algorithm of Bareiss.
 • This command is part of the RegularChains[MatrixTools] package, so it can be used in the form LowerEchelonForm(..) only after executing the command with(RegularChains[MatrixTools]).  However, it can always be accessed through the long form of the command by using RegularChains[MatrixTools][LowerEchelonForm](..).
