Multivariate Power Series Rings

Construct a multivariate power series ring (in finitely many variables) over a given (commutative) base ring.

EXAMPLES:

Construct rings and elements:

sage: R.<t,u,v> = PowerSeriesRing(QQ); R
Multivariate Power Series Ring in t, u, v over Rational Field
sage: TestSuite(R).run()
sage: p = -t + 1/2*t^3*u - 1/4*t^4*u + 2/3*v^5 + R.O(6); p
-t + 1/2*t^3*u - 1/4*t^4*u + 2/3*v^5 + O(t, u, v)^6
sage: p in R
True

sage: g = 1 + v + 3*u*t^2 - 2*v^2*t^2; g
1 + v + 3*t^2*u - 2*t^2*v^2
sage: g in R
True

Add big O as with single variable power series:

sage: g.add_bigoh(3)
1 + v + O(t, u, v)^3
sage: g = g.O(5); g
1 + v + 3*t^2*u - 2*t^2*v^2 + O(t, u, v)^5

Sage keeps track of total-degree precision:

sage: f = (g-1)^2 - g + 1; f
-v + v^2 - 3*t^2*u + 6*t^2*u*v + 2*t^2*v^2 + O(t, u, v)^5

Multivariate Power Series Ring in k0, k1, k2, k3 over Rational Field
sage: loads(dumps(M)) is M
True
sage: TestSuite(M).run()

+ (2*z[0]*z[1] + z[1]*z[2] - z[2]^2 - z[1] + 3*z[2])*f[3]^2 \
+ H.O(3)
sage: h in H
True
sage: h
4*z1^2 + 2*z0*z2 + z1*z2 + z2^2 + (-z2^2 - 2*z0 + z2)*f0*f2
+ (-22*z0^2 + 2*z1^2 - z0*z2 + z2^2 - 1955*z2)*f1*f2
+ (-z0*z1 - 2*z1^2)*f2*f3 + (2*z0*z1 + z1*z2 - z2^2 - z1 + 3*z2)*f3^2
+ O(f0, f1, f2, f3)^3

  Multivariate Power Series Ring in x, y over Finite Field of size 65537
  sage: s = -30077*x + 9485*x*y - 6260*y^3 + 12870*x^2*y^2 - 20289*y^4 + S.O(5); s

  sage: s in S
  True
  sage: TestSuite(S).run()
  sage: loads(dumps(S)) is S
  True

  Multivariate Power Series Ring in s, t, u over Integer Ring
  sage: GF(127931)[['x,y']]

The implementation of the multivariate power series ring uses a combination of multivariate polynomials and univariate power series. Namely, in order to construct the multivariate power series ring \(R[[x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_n]]\), we consider the univariate power series ring \(S[[T]]\) over the multivariate polynomial ring \(S := R[x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_n]\), and in it we take the subring formed by all power series whose \(i\)-th coefficient has degree \(i\) for all \(i \geq 0\). This subring is isomorphic to \(R[[x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_n]]\). This is how \(R[[x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_n]]\) is implemented in this class. The ring \(S\) is called the foreground polynomial ring, and the ring \(S[[T]]\) is called the background univariate power series ring.

class sage.rings.multi_power_series_ring.MPowerSeriesRing_generic(base_ring, num_gens, name_list, order='negdeglex', default_prec=10, sparse=False)

Bases: sage.rings.power_series_ring.PowerSeriesRing_generic, sage.structure.nonexact.Nonexact

A multivariate power series ring. This class is implemented as a single variable power series ring in the variable T over a multivariable polynomial ring in the specified generators. Each generator g of the multivariable polynomial ring (called the “foreground ring”) is mapped to g*T in the single variable power series ring (called the “background ring”). The background power series ring is used to do arithmetic and track total-degree precision. The foreground polynomial ring is used to display elements.

For usage and examples, see above, and PowerSeriesRing().
