Description
The standard monomials of a monomial ideal
I (those monomials that are not in
I) can be enumerated as follows. Given a monomial
m and a subset
F of the variables, the pair
(m,F) indexes the set of monomials of the form
mm' where the monomial
m' is supported on
F. A
List of pairs
(m, F) form
standard pairs for the monomial ideal
I if it satisfies the following three conditions:
-
for each pair, the monomial m is supported on the complement of F;
-
all of the monomials represented by a pair are standard;
-
the pairs index disjoint sets of monomials.

The standard pairs are computed with Algorithm 3.2.5 in Gröbner Deformations of Hypergeometric Differential Equations, by Mutsumi Saito, Bernd Sturmfels and Nobuki Takayama; Algorithms and Computation in Mathematics 6, Springer-Verlag, 2000. Implemented by Gregory G. Smith.
