multVar -- extract the sets of multiplicative variables for each generator (in several contexts)

Synopsis

Description

If the argument of multVar is an instance of the type InvolutiveBasis, then the i-th set in m consists of the multiplicative variables for the i-th generator in J.

If the arguments of multVar are a chain complex and an integer, where C is the result of either janetResolution or resolution called with the optional argument 'Strategy => Involutive', then the i-th set in m consists of the multiplicative variables for the i-th generator in the n-th differential of C.

If the argument of multVar is an instance of the type FactorModuleBasis, then the i-th set in m consists of the multiplicative variables for the i-th monomial cone in F.
