PolynomialTraits_d Concept Reference

Definition

A model of PolynomialTraits_d is associated with a type Polynomial_d. The type Polynomial_d represents a multivariate polynomial. The number of variables is denoted as the dimension \( d\) of the polynomial, it is arbitrary but fixed for a certain model of this concept. Note that univariate polynomials are not excluded by this concept. In this case \( d\) is just set to one.

PolynomialTraits_d provides two different views on the multivariate polynomial.

  • The recursive view: In this view, the polynomial is considered as an element of \( R[x_0,\dots,x_{d-2}][x_{d-1}]\). That is, the polynomial is treated as a univariate polynomial over the ring \( R[x_0,\dots,x_{d-2}]\).
  • The symmetric or multivariate view: This view is symmetric with respect to all variables, considering the polynomial as an element of \( R [x_0,\dots,x_{d-1}]\).

Many functors consider the polynomial as a univariate polynomial in one variable. By default this is the outermost variable \( x_{d-1}\). However, in general it is possible to select a certain variable.
