RegularChains[ChainTools][Dimension] - dimension of a regular chain
|
Calling Sequence
|
|
Dimension(rc, R)
|
|
Parameters
|
|
rc
|
-
|
regular chain of R
|
R
|
-
|
polynomial ring
|
|

Description
|
|
•
|
The command Dimension(rc, R) returns the dimension of the saturated ideal of rc. This is also the number of variables of R minus the number of elements in rc.
|
•
|
This command is part of the RegularChains[ChainTools] package, so it can be used in the form Dimension(..) only after executing the command with(RegularChains[ChainTools]). However, it can always be accessed through the long form of the command by using RegularChains[ChainTools][Dimension](..).
