extractDiffsAlgebra -- underlying polynomial ring in the differentials of a Weyl algebra

Synopsis

Description

Extracts from a Weyl algebra the polynomial ring in its differentials only.

i1 : D = makeWA(QQ[x,y])

o1 = D

o1 : PolynomialRing, 2 differential variable(s)
i2 : S = extractDiffsAlgebra D

o2 = S

o2 : PolynomialRing
i3 : describe S

o3 = QQ[dx, dy, Degrees => {2:1}, Heft => {1}]
