val = isBirationalOntoImage(Pi)
val = isBirationalOntoImage(phi)
The function isBirationalOntoImage computes whether $f : X \to Y$ is birational onto its image. It is essentially a combination of mapOntoImage with isBirationalOntoImage. Setting option AssumeDominant to true will cause the function to assume that the kernel of the associated ring map is zero (default value is false). The source must be a variety; its defining ideal must be prime. In the following example, the map is not birational, but it is birational onto its image.

Sub-Hankel matrices (matrices whose ascending skew-diagonal entries are constant) have homaloidal determinants (the associated partial derivatives define a Cremona map). For more discussion see:
Consider the following example illustrating this.
