Differential polynomial rings

differential_polynomial_ring(R::Ring, elementary_symbols::Union{Vector{Symbol}, Int}, n_action_maps::Int) -> Tuple{DifferentialPolyRing, Vector{DifferentialPolyRingElem}}

Construct the differential polynomial ring over the base ring R with the given elementary symbols and n_action_maps commuting derivations.

• If elementary_symbols is a vector of symbols, those names are used.
• If it is an integer m, the symbols u1, …, um are generated automatically.

In both cases, the jet variables that are initially available are those with jet [0,…,0], one for each elementary symbol.

This method returns a tuple (dpr, gens) where dpr is the resulting differential polynomial ring and gens is the vector of initial jet variables.

This constructor also accepts all keyword arguments of set_ranking! to control the ranking.

diff_action(p::DifferentialPolyRingElem, i::Int)

Apply the i-th derivation to the polynomial p.

diff_action(p::ActionPolyRingElem, d::Vector{Int}) -> ActionPolyRingElem

Successively apply the i-th diff-action d[i]-times to the polynomial p, where $i = 1, \ldots, \mathrm{length}(d)$.
