EisenbudShamash -- Computes the Eisenbud-Shamash Complex

Synopsis

Description

Let R = ring F = ring ff, and Rbar = R/(ideal ff). The complex F should admit a system of higher homotopies for the entries of ff, returned by the call makeHomotopies(ff,F).

When the entries of ff form a regular sequence on ring F, the Shamash complex is a resolution.

The complex G has terms that are abstractly G_i = F_i ++ D_1**F_{i-2} ++ D_2**F_{i-4}... where D_i is the i-th divided power of the free module source ff. In fact the term D_i**F_j is the direct sum of copies of F_j, indexed by the basis t^{e} of the divided power, each twisted by the degree of t^{e}. This basis is in 1-1 correspondence with the partitions of c = numcols ff, with i parts, produced by the function expo(c,i), as can be seen in the following:

i9 : betti F

            0 1  2  3 4 5
o9 = total: 1 5 10 10 5 1
         0: 1 5 10 10 5 1

o10 = {|--------| , |--------|  , |--------|  }
       |  2   3 |   |  2   3 |    |  2   3 |
       |(x , x )|   |(x , x )|    |(x , x )|
       \  0   1 /   \  0   1 /    \  0   1 /

o10 : List

Thus, c = 2, so D_i = R^{i+1}, and G5 is the direct sum F_5 ++ R^2**F_3 ++ R^3**F_1. Moreover, D_1 has two exponents,

i11 : expo(numcols ff, 1)

o11 = {{1, 0}, {0, 1}}

o11 : List

So G5_1 will have two components, both isomorphic to R**F_3 = R^{10}:

i12 : G51 = (G5_1).cache.components

       /    S   \10  /    S   \10
o12 = {|--------|  , |--------|  }
       |  2   3 |    |  2   3 |
       |(x , x )|    |(x , x )|
       \  0   1 /    \  0   1 /

All the decompositions seem to impose a certain overhead, and in the case where it applies, namely c=1, the routine Shamash is faster:

The function also deals correctly with complexes F where min F is not 0:

i22 : GG = time EisenbudShamash(R1,F[2],4)
     -- used 0.504888 seconds

        1       6       18       38       66
