r""" Constructors for polynomial rings
This module provides the function :func:`PolynomialRing`, which constructs rings of univariate and multivariate polynomials, and implements caching to prevent the same ring being created in memory multiple times (which is wasteful and breaks the general assumption in Sage that parents are unique).
There is also a function :func:`BooleanPolynomialRing_constructor`, used for constructing Boolean polynomial rings, which are not technically polynomial rings but rather quotients of them (see module :mod:`sage.rings.polynomial.pbori` for more details). """

# The signature for this function is too complicated to express sensibly # in any other way besides *args and **kwds (in Python 3 or Cython, we # could probably do better thanks to PEP 3102). def PolynomialRing(base_ring, *args, **kwds): r""" Return the globally unique univariate or multivariate polynomial ring with given properties and variable name or names.
There are many ways to specify the variables for the polynomial ring:
1. ``PolynomialRing(base_ring, name, ...)`` 2. ``PolynomialRing(base_ring, names, ...)`` 3. ``PolynomialRing(base_ring, n, names, ...)`` 4. ``PolynomialRing(base_ring, n, ..., var_array=var_array, ...)``
The ``...`` at the end of these commands stands for additional keywords, like ``sparse`` or ``order``.
INPUT:
- ``base_ring`` -- a ring
- ``n`` -- an integer
- ``name`` -- a string
- ``names`` -- a list or tuple of names (strings), or a comma separated string
- ``var_array`` -- a list or tuple of names, or a comma separated string
- ``sparse`` -- bool: whether or not elements are sparse. The default is a dense representation (``sparse=False``) for univariate rings and a sparse representation (``sparse=True``) for multivariate rings.
- ``order`` -- string or :class:`~sage.rings.polynomial.term_order.TermOrder` object, e.g.,
- ``'degrevlex'`` (default) -- degree reverse lexicographic - ``'lex'`` -- lexicographic - ``'deglex'`` -- degree lexicographic - ``TermOrder('deglex',3) + TermOrder('deglex',3)`` -- block ordering
- ``implementation`` -- string or None; selects an implementation in cases where Sage includes multiple choices (currently `\ZZ[x]` can be implemented with ``'NTL'`` or ``'FLINT'``; default is ``'FLINT'``). For many base rings, the ``"singular"`` implementation is available. One can always specify ``implementation="generic"`` for a generic Sage implementation which does not use any specialized library.
.. NOTE::
If the given implementation does not exist for rings with the given number of generators and the given sparsity, then an error results.
OUTPUT:
``PolynomialRing(base_ring, name, sparse=False)`` returns a univariate polynomial ring; also, PolynomialRing(base_ring, names, sparse=False) yields a univariate polynomial ring, if names is a list or tuple providing exactly one name. All other input formats return a multivariate polynomial ring.
UNIQUENESS and IMMUTABILITY: In Sage there is exactly one single-variate polynomial ring over each base ring in each choice of variable, sparseness, and implementation. There is also exactly one multivariate polynomial ring over each base ring for each choice of names of variables and term order. The names of the generators can only be temporarily changed after the ring has been created. Do this using the localvars context:
EXAMPLES:
**1. PolynomialRing(base_ring, name, ...)**
::
sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'w') Univariate Polynomial Ring in w over Rational Field sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, name='w') Univariate Polynomial Ring in w over Rational Field
Use the diamond brackets notation to make the variable ready for use after you define the ring::
sage: R.<w> = PolynomialRing(QQ) sage: (1 + w)^3 w^3 + 3*w^2 + 3*w + 1
You must specify a name::
sage: PolynomialRing(QQ) Traceback (most recent call last): ... TypeError: you must specify the names of the variables
sage: R.<abc> = PolynomialRing(QQ, sparse=True); R Sparse Univariate Polynomial Ring in abc over Rational Field
sage: R.<w> = PolynomialRing(PolynomialRing(GF(7),'k')); R Univariate Polynomial Ring in w over Univariate Polynomial Ring in k over Finite Field of size 7
The square bracket notation::
sage: R.<y> = QQ['y']; R Univariate Polynomial Ring in y over Rational Field sage: y^2 + y y^2 + y
In fact, since the diamond brackets on the left determine the variable name, you can omit the variable from the square brackets::
sage: R.<zz> = QQ[]; R Univariate Polynomial Ring in zz over Rational Field sage: (zz + 1)^2 zz^2 + 2*zz + 1
This is exactly the same ring as what PolynomialRing returns::
sage: R is PolynomialRing(QQ,'zz') True
However, rings with different variables are different::
sage: QQ['x'] == QQ['y'] False
Sage has two implementations of univariate polynomials over the integers, one based on NTL and one based on FLINT. The default is FLINT. Note that FLINT uses a "more dense" representation for its polynomials than NTL, so in particular, creating a polynomial like 2^1000000 * x^1000000 in FLINT may be unwise. ::
sage: ZxNTL = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'x', implementation='NTL'); ZxNTL Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Integer Ring (using NTL) sage: ZxFLINT = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'x', implementation='FLINT'); ZxFLINT Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Integer Ring sage: ZxFLINT is ZZ['x'] True sage: ZxFLINT is PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'x') True sage: xNTL = ZxNTL.gen() sage: xFLINT = ZxFLINT.gen() sage: xNTL.parent() Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Integer Ring (using NTL) sage: xFLINT.parent() Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Integer Ring
There is a coercion from the non-default to the default implementation, so the values can be mixed in a single expression::
sage: (xNTL + xFLINT^2) x^2 + x
The result of such an expression will use the default, i.e., the FLINT implementation::
sage: (xNTL + xFLINT^2).parent() Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Integer Ring
The generic implementation uses neither NTL nor FLINT::
sage: Zx = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'x', implementation='generic'); Zx Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Integer Ring sage: Zx.element_class <... 'sage.rings.polynomial.polynomial_element.Polynomial_generic_dense'>
**2. PolynomialRing(base_ring, names, ...)**
::
sage: R = PolynomialRing(QQ, 'a,b,c'); R Multivariate Polynomial Ring in a, b, c over Rational Field
sage: S = PolynomialRing(QQ, ['a','b','c']); S Multivariate Polynomial Ring in a, b, c over Rational Field
sage: T = PolynomialRing(QQ, ('a','b','c')); T Multivariate Polynomial Ring in a, b, c over Rational Field
All three rings are identical::
sage: R is S True sage: S is T True
There is a unique polynomial ring with each term order::
sage: R = PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x,y,z', order='degrevlex'); R Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y, z over Rational Field sage: S = PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x,y,z', order='invlex'); S Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y, z over Rational Field sage: S is PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x,y,z', order='invlex') True sage: R == S False
Note that a univariate polynomial ring is returned, if the list of names is of length one. If it is of length zero, a multivariate polynomial ring with no variables is returned.
::
sage: PolynomialRing(QQ,["x"]) Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Rational Field sage: PolynomialRing(QQ,[]) Multivariate Polynomial Ring in no variables over Rational Field
The Singular implementation always returns a multivariate ring, even for 1 variable::
sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, "x", implementation="singular") Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x over Rational Field sage: P.<x> = PolynomialRing(QQ, implementation="singular"); P Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x over Rational Field
**3. PolynomialRing(base_ring, n, names, ...)** (where the arguments ``n`` and ``names`` may be reversed)
If you specify a single name as a string and a number of variables, then variables labeled with numbers are created.
::
sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'x', 10) Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x0, x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, x7, x8, x9 over Rational Field
sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 2, 'alpha0') Multivariate Polynomial Ring in alpha00, alpha01 over Rational Field
sage: PolynomialRing(GF(7), 'y', 5) Multivariate Polynomial Ring in y0, y1, y2, y3, y4 over Finite Field of size 7
sage: PolynomialRing(QQ, 'y', 3, sparse=True) Multivariate Polynomial Ring in y0, y1, y2 over Rational Field
Note that a multivariate polynomial ring is returned when an explicit number is given.
::
sage: PolynomialRing(QQ,"x",1) Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x over Rational Field sage: PolynomialRing(QQ,"x",0) Multivariate Polynomial Ring in no variables over Rational Field
It is easy in Python to create fairly arbitrary variable names. For example, here is a ring with generators labeled by the primes less than 100::
sage: R = PolynomialRing(ZZ, ['x%s'%p for p in primes(100)]); R Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x2, x3, x5, x7, x11, x13, x17, x19, x23, x29, x31, x37, x41, x43, x47, x53, x59, x61, x67, x71, x73, x79, x83, x89, x97 over Integer Ring
By calling the :meth:`~sage.structure.category_object.CategoryObject.inject_variables` method, all those variable names are available for interactive use::
sage: R.inject_variables() Defining x2, x3, x5, x7, x11, x13, x17, x19, x23, x29, x31, x37, x41, x43, x47, x53, x59, x61, x67, x71, x73, x79, x83, x89, x97 sage: (x2 + x41 + x71)^2 x2^2 + 2*x2*x41 + x41^2 + 2*x2*x71 + 2*x41*x71 + x71^2
**4. PolynomialRing(base_ring, n, ..., var_array=var_array, ...)**
This creates an array of variables where each variables begins with an entry in ``var_array`` and is indexed from 0 to `n-1`. ::
sage: PolynomialRing(ZZ, 3, var_array=['x','y']) Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x0, y0, x1, y1, x2, y2 over Integer Ring sage: PolynomialRing(ZZ, 3, var_array='a,b') Multivariate Polynomial Ring in a0, b0, a1, b1, a2, b2 over Integer Ring
It is possible to create higher-dimensional arrays::
sage: PolynomialRing(ZZ, 2, 3, var_array=('p', 'q')) Multivariate Polynomial Ring in p00, q00, p01, q01, p02, q02, p10, q10, p11, q11, p12, q12 over Integer Ring sage: PolynomialRing(ZZ, 2, 3, 4, var_array='m') Multivariate Polynomial Ring in m000, m001, m002, m003, m010, m011, m012, m013, m020, m021, m022, m023, m100, m101, m102, m103, m110, m111, m112, m113, m120, m121, m122, m123 over Integer Ring
The array is always at least 2-dimensional. So, if ``var_array`` is a single string and only a single number `n` is given, this creates an `n \times n` array of variables::
sage: PolynomialRing(ZZ, 2, var_array='m') Multivariate Polynomial Ring in m00, m01, m10, m11 over Integer Ring
**Square brackets notation**
You can alternatively create a polynomial ring over a ring `R` with square brackets::
sage: RR["x"] Univariate Polynomial Ring in x over Real Field with 53 bits of precision sage: RR["x,y"] Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Real Field with 53 bits of precision sage: P.<x,y> = RR[]; P Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Real Field with 53 bits of precision
This notation does not allow to set any of the optional arguments.
**Changing variable names**
Consider ::
sage: R.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(QQ,2); R Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Rational Field sage: f = x^2 - 2*y^2
You can't just globally change the names of those variables. This is because objects all over Sage could have pointers to that polynomial ring. ::
sage: R._assign_names(['z','w']) Traceback (most recent call last): ... ValueError: variable names cannot be changed after object creation.
However, you can very easily change the names within a ``with`` block::
sage: with localvars(R, ['z','w']): ....: print(f) z^2 - 2*w^2
After the ``with`` block the names revert to what they were before::
sage: print(f) x^2 - 2*y^2
TESTS:
We test here some changes introduced in :trac:`9944`.
If there is no dense implementation for the given number of variables, then requesting a dense ring is an error::
sage: S.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(QQ, sparse=False) Traceback (most recent call last): ... NotImplementedError: a dense representation of multivariate polynomials is not supported
Check uniqueness if the same implementation is used for different values of the ``"implementation"`` keyword::
sage: R = PolynomialRing(QQbar, 'j', implementation="generic") sage: S = PolynomialRing(QQbar, 'j', implementation=None) sage: R is S True
sage: R = PolynomialRing(ZZ['t'], 'j', implementation="generic") sage: S = PolynomialRing(ZZ['t'], 'j', implementation=None) sage: R is S True
sage: R = PolynomialRing(QQbar, 'j,k', implementation="generic") sage: S = PolynomialRing(QQbar, 'j,k', implementation=None) sage: R is S True
sage: R = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'j,k', implementation="singular") sage: S = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'j,k', implementation=None) sage: R is S True
sage: R = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'p', sparse=True, implementation="generic") sage: S = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'p', sparse=True) sage: R is S True
The generic implementation is different in some cases::
sage: R = PolynomialRing(GF(2), 'j', implementation="generic"); type(R) <class 'sage.rings.polynomial.polynomial_ring.PolynomialRing_field_with_category'> sage: S = PolynomialRing(GF(2), 'j'); type(S) <class 'sage.rings.polynomial.polynomial_ring.PolynomialRing_dense_mod_p_with_category'>
sage: R = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'x,y', implementation="generic"); type(R) <class 'sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_ring.MPolynomialRing_polydict_domain_with_category'> sage: S = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'x,y'); type(S) <type 'sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_libsingular.MPolynomialRing_libsingular'>
Sparse univariate polynomials only support a generic implementation::
sage: R = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'j', sparse=True); type(R) <class 'sage.rings.polynomial.polynomial_ring.PolynomialRing_integral_domain_with_category'> sage: R = PolynomialRing(GF(49), 'j', sparse=True); type(R) <class 'sage.rings.polynomial.polynomial_ring.PolynomialRing_field_with_category'>
If the requested implementation is not known or not supported for the given arguments, then an error results::
sage: R.<x0> = PolynomialRing(ZZ, implementation='Foo') Traceback (most recent call last): ... ValueError: unknown implementation 'Foo' for dense polynomial rings over Integer Ring sage: R.<x0> = PolynomialRing(GF(2), implementation='GF2X', sparse=True) Traceback (most recent call last): ... ValueError: unknown implementation 'GF2X' for sparse polynomial rings over Finite Field of size 2 sage: R.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(ZZ, implementation='FLINT') Traceback (most recent call last): ... ValueError: unknown implementation 'FLINT' for multivariate polynomial rings sage: R.<x> = PolynomialRing(QQbar, implementation="whatever") Traceback (most recent call last): ... ValueError: unknown implementation 'whatever' for dense polynomial rings over Algebraic Field sage: R.<x> = PolynomialRing(ZZ['t'], implementation="whatever") Traceback (most recent call last): ... ValueError: unknown implementation 'whatever' for dense polynomial rings over Univariate Polynomial Ring in t over Integer Ring sage: PolynomialRing(RR, "x,y", implementation="whatever") Traceback (most recent call last): ... ValueError: unknown implementation 'whatever' for multivariate polynomial rings sage: PolynomialRing(RR, name="x", implementation="singular") Traceback (most recent call last): ... NotImplementedError: polynomials over Real Field with 53 bits of precision are not supported in Singular
The following corner case used to result in a warning message from ``libSingular``, and the generators of the resulting polynomial ring were not zero::
sage: R = Integers(1)['x','y'] sage: R.0 == 0 True
We verify that :trac:`13187` is fixed::
sage: var('t') t sage: PolynomialRing(ZZ, name=t) == PolynomialRing(ZZ, name='t') True
We verify that polynomials with interval coefficients from :trac:`7712` and :trac:`13760` are fixed::
sage: P.<y,z> = PolynomialRing(RealIntervalField(2)) sage: Q.<x> = PolynomialRing(P) sage: C = (y-x)^3 sage: C(y/2) 1.?*y^3 sage: R.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(RIF,2) sage: RIF(-2,1)*x 0.?e1*x
For historical reasons, we allow redundant variable names with the angle bracket notation. The names must be consistent though! ::
sage: P.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(ZZ, "x,y"); P Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Integer Ring sage: P.<x,y> = ZZ["x,y"]; P Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y over Integer Ring sage: P.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 2, "x"); P Traceback (most recent call last): ... TypeError: variable names specified twice inconsistently: ('x0', 'x1') and ('x', 'y')
