2022-03-01 09:59:43 +0200 marked best answer Writing a polynomial as a product of t-numbers

I have a function which produces a polynomial in $t$ with positive integer coefficients, and I know that these factor as product of $t-$ numbers of the form $[k]_t = 1+t+...+t^{k-1}$ . Is there a way to factor the polynomials in sage which readily give the factorization in terms of the $t-$numbers?

For example, I have a polynomial $(t^2-t+1)(t^2+t+1)(t+1)^2=(t^5+t^4+t^3+t^2+t+1)(t+1)$. I want the program to return $[6]_t[2]_t$.

2021-12-13 23:38:12 +0200 marked best answer Checking whether a polynomial in unimodal

Let $p(t)\in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}[t]$. Write $p(t)=\sum_i a_i t^i$. Then we say $p(t)$ is unimodal if $a_0 \leq a_1 \leq ... \leq a_k \geq a_{k+1} \geq ... \geq a_n$ i.e, the sequence of coefficients increase at first and then decrease, they don't 'jump around' ; there is no phenomenon like increase then decrease then increase again. Given such a polynomial, how can we check unimodality in sage?

No... I meant your earlier program didn't work if there was some internal zeroes

Actually coeffs don't take into account if some coefficient $a_k=0$ in the middle. So this works fine if there is no int

2021-10-23 20:34:45 +0200 marked best answer Non-Symmetric Macdonald expansion

I want to expand a given polynomial in $n$ variables, homogeneous of degree $k$ as a linear combination of Non-Symmetric Macdonald polynomials $E_{\alpha}$ where $\alpha$ varies over $\mathbb{Z}^n_{\geq 0}$ with $\sum \alpha_i = k$.

Background: We know that these Macdonald polynomials do indeed form a basis of the vector space of homogeneous degree $k$ polynomials in $n$ variables. The Non-Symmetric Macdonald polynomials I am interested in is the type $GL_n$ kind. And their sage implementation can be found here: sage documentation

Bottom line is that we have a basis of a vector space already implemented in sage. Now how do we use it to compute coefficients of any vector when written in terms of this basis?

2020-09-19 06:59:12 +0200 asked a question Functions in polynomials rings

I want to define a function in a polynomial ring in several variables.

R.<x1,x3,x5>=PolynomialRing(QQ)

I am trying to define a function that takes $(i,j)$ to $x_i^j$.

I tried

def f(i,j):
   return xi^j

This does not work. I tried replacing xi with x[i], that doesn't work. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong and how to fix it? If instead of taking 3 variables I take only 1 variable then the method works.

2020-09-19 06:09:36 +0200 marked best answer Derivative in infinite polynomial ring

I am defining my ring as R.<x>=InfinitePolynomialRing(QQ), and this should give me ring with variables x[1],x[2],... etc. right? Now I want to differentiate a polynomial with respect to x[1] variable. So I defined f=x[1]^3 (for example). I am trying f.derivative(x[1]) but that does not work. It shows " 'typeerror': argument 'var' has incorrect type (expected sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_libsingular.MPolynomial_libsingular, got InfinitePolynomial_dense)." Can someone please explain what is wrong and what I should do to fix it?
