:: Computes decompositions of ideals.

return

plist

list of polynomials

vlist

list of variables

• Function primadec() and primedec are defined in `primdec'.
• primadec(), primedec() are the function for primary ideal decomposition and prime decomposition of the radical over the rationals respectively.
• The arguments are a list of polynomials and a list of variables. These functions accept ideals with rational function coefficients only.
• primadec returns the list of pair lists consisting a primary component and its associated prime.
• primedec returns the list of prime components.
• Each component is a Groebner basis and the corresponding term order is indicated by the global variables PRIMAORD, PRIMEORD respectively.
• primadec implements the primary decompostion algorithm in [Shimoyama,Yokoyama].
• If one only wants to know the prime components of an ideal, then use primedec because primadec may need additional costs if an input ideal is not radical.
