diffalg(deprecated)/delta_polynomial - Maple Help

diffalg

 delta_polynomial
 return the delta-polynomial generated by two differential polynomials

 Calling Sequence delta_polynomial (p, q, R)

Parameters

 p, q - differential polynomials in R R - differential polynomial ring

Description

 • Important: The diffalg package has been deprecated. Use the superseding package DifferentialAlgebra instead.
 • The delta_polynomial command returns the delta-polynomial of p and q, that is
 $\mathrm{separant}\left(q,R\right)\mathrm{\phi }\left(p\right)-\mathrm{separant}\left(p,R\right)\mathrm{\psi }\left(q\right)$
 where phi and psi  are  the derivation operators of least order such that phi (up) = psi (uq) where up and uq are the leaders of p and q.
 The delta-polynomial is sometimes called the cross-derivative.
 • The differential polynomials p and q must not belong to the ground field of R. Their leaders must be derivatives of the same differential indeterminate but not be derivatives of each other. Otherwise, the delta-polynomial is not defined and delta_polynomial returns an error message.
 • Delta-polynomials are constructed when dealing with partial differential polynomials to obtain regular differential systems.
 • The command with(diffalg,delta_polynomial) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
