# RatSols -- rational solutions of a holonomic system

## Synopsis

• Usage:
RatSols I
RatSols(I,f)
RatSols(I,f,w)
RatSols(I,ff)
RatSols(I,ff,w)
• Inputs:
• I, an ideal, holonomic ideal in the Weyl algebra D
• f, , a polynomial
• ff, a list, a list of polynomials
• w, a list, a weight vector
• Outputs:
• a list, a basis of the rational solutions of I with poles along f or along the polynomials in ff using w for Groebner deformations

## Description

The rational solutions of a holonomic system form a finite-dimensional vector space. The only possibilities for the poles of a rational solution are the codimension one components of the singular locus. An algorithm to compute rational solutions is based on Gr\"obner deformations and works for ideals $I$ of PDE's - see the paper Polynomial and rational solutions of a holonomic system by Oaku, Takayama and Tsai (2000).

## Caveat

The most efficient method to find rational solutions of a system of differential equations is to find the singular locus, then try to find its irreducible factors. With these, call RatSols(I, ff, w), where w should be generic enough so that the PolySols routine will not complain of a non-generic weight vector.

• RatExt -- Ext(holonomic D-module, polynomial ring localized at the singular locus)
• DHom -- D-homomorphisms between holonomic D-modules
