Singular Book 1.2.13 -- monomial orderings

Monomial orderings are specified when defining a polynomial ring.

global orderings

The default order is the graded (degree) reverse lexicographic order.
i1 : A2 = QQ[x,y,z];
i2 : A2 = QQ[x,y,z,MonomialOrder=>GRevLex];
i3 : f = x^3*y*z+y^5+z^4+x^3+x*y^2

      5    3       4    3      2
o3 = y  + x y*z + z  + x  + x*y

o3 : A2
Lexicographic order.
i4 : A1 = QQ[x,y,z,MonomialOrder=>Lex];
i5 : substitute(f,A1)

      3       3      2    5    4
o5 = x y*z + x  + x*y  + y  + z

o5 : A1
Graded (degree) lexicographic order.
i6 : A3 = QQ[x,y,z,MonomialOrder=>{Weights=>{1,1,1},Lex}];
i7 : substitute(f,A3)

      3       5    4    3      2
o7 = x y*z + y  + z  + x  + x*y

o7 : A3
Graded (degree) lexicographic order, with nonstandard weights.
i8 : A4 = QQ[x,y,z,MonomialOrder=>{Weights=>{5,3,2},Lex}];
i9 : substitute(f,A4)

      3       3    5      2    4
o9 = x y*z + x  + y  + x*y  + z

o9 : A4
A product order, with each block being GRevLex.
i10 : A = QQ[x,y,z,MonomialOrder=>{1,2}];
i11 : substitute(f,A)

       3       3      2    5    4
o11 = x y*z + x  + x*y  + y  + z

o11 : A

local orderings

Negative lexicographic order.
i12 : A = QQ[x,y,z,MonomialOrder=>{Weights=>{-1,0,0},Weights=>{0,-1,0},Weights=>{0,0,-1}},Global=>false];
i13 : substitute(f,A)

       4    5      2    3    3
o13 = z  + y  + x*y  + x  + x y*z

o13 : A
Negative graded reverse lexicographic order.
i14 : A = QQ[x,y,z,MonomialOrder=>{Weights=>{-1,-1,-1},GRevLex},Global=>false];
i15 : substitute(f,A)

       3      2    4    5    3
o15 = x  + x*y  + z  + y  + x y*z

o15 : A
