Changing Related Structures#

Sometimes whilst working with a differential ring \(R\), one might wish to consider the same ring, but with a different derivation or with a larger constant ring. It is a consequence of the creation of a differential ring, that its constant ring may actually be smaller than its differential ring of constants.

To alter the settings defined by the creation of a differential ring or field the following functions are available.

ChangeDerivation(R, f): RngDiff, RngElt -> RngDiff, Map#

Returns a differential ring isomorphic to \(R\), but whose derivation is the map \(f\cdot\) Derivation(R) induced by the isomorphism. The ring element \(f\) must be non–zero. The isomorphism of \(R\) to the new differential ring is also returned. The new differential ring has the same underlying ring as \(R\).

Example: Diff Ring Change Derivation (ex-271826)#
> F<z> := RationalDifferentialField(Rationals());
> Derivative(z^2);
2*z
> K, toK := ChangeDerivation(F, z);
> K;
Differential Ring of Algebraic function field defined over Rational Field by
$.2 - 4711
with derivation given by (1/z) d(z)
> toK;
Mapping from: RngDiff: F to RngDiff: K given by a rule
> Derivative(toK(z^2));
2*z^2
> UnderlyingRing(F) eq UnderlyingRing(K);
true

Run in calculator

Notice that the differential of \(K\) is \((1/z) {d} (z)\), so that the derivation of \(K\) is \(z\cdot {d}/{d}z\), as requested.

ChangeDifferential(F, df): RngDiff, DiffFunElt -> RngDiff, Map#

Returns the algebraic differential field, whose underlying ring is the one of \(F\), but with derivation with respect to the differential \(df\). The map returned is the bijective map from \(F\) into the new algebraic differential field.

Example: Diff Ring Change Differential (ex-7c6694)#
> F<z> := RationalDifferentialField(Rationals());
> df := Differential(1/z);
> df in DifferentialSpace(UnderlyingRing(F));
true
> M<u>, mp := ChangeDifferential(F,df);
> IsAlgebraicDifferentialField(M);

> N<v>, mp := ChangeDifferential(F,dg);
> Differential(M);
(3*v^2) d(v)
> mp(z);
v
> Derivation(N)(mp(z));
1/3/v^2

ConstantFieldExtension(F, C): RngDiff, Fld -> RngDiff, Map#

Returns the differential field isomorphic to the differential field \(F\), but whose constant field is the extension \(C\), and the isomorphism from \(F\) to the new field. The differential field \(F\) must be an algebraic function field.

Example: Diff Ring Constant Field Extension (ex-17cbbe)#
> F<z> := RationalDifferentialField(Rationals());
> _<X> := PolynomialRing(F);
> M := ext< F | X^2-2 >;
> ConstantField(M);

> _<x>:=PolynomialRing(Rationals());
> C := NumberField(x^2-2);
> Mext, toMext := ConstantFieldExtension(M, C);
> ConstantField(Mext);
Number Field with defining polynomial x^2 - 2 over the Rational Field
> toMext;

Example: Diff Ring Constant Field Extension Series (ex-a878b1)#

> P<T> := PolynomialRing(Rationals());

> IsDifferentialLaurentSeriesRing(Sext);

> ConstantRing(Sext) eq Cext;

Completion(F, p): RngDiff, PlcFunElt -> RngDiff, Map#
Precision: RngIntElt                    Default: Infinity()

The completion of the differential field \(F\) with respect to the place \(p\). The place \(p\) should be an element of the set of places of \(F\). The derivation of the completion is the one naturally induced by the derivation of \(F\). The map returned is the embedding of \(F\) into the completion. Upon creation one can set the precision by using Precision. If no precision is given, then a default value is taken.

Example: Diff Ring Completion Create (ex-5fcb44)#

This example illustrates the creation of the differential Laurent series ring by using the command Completion.

> F<z> := RationalDifferentialField(Rationals());
> pl := Zeros(z)[1];
> S<t>, mp := Completion(F,pl: Precision := 5);
> IsDifferentialLaurentSeriesRing(S);
true
> mp;
Mapping from: RngDiff: F to RngDiff: S given by a rule
> Domain(mp) eq F, Codomain(mp) eq S;
true true
> Derivation(S)(t);
1
> 1/(1-t);
1 + t + t^2 + t^3 + t^4 + O(t^5)

Example: Diff Ring Completion Elliptic (ex-512dde)#

This example shows that one does not have to restrict to differential fields of genus \(0\) to use Completion.

> F<z> := RationalDifferentialField(Rationals());
> P<Y> := PolynomialRing(F);
> K<y> := ext<F|Y^2-z^3+z+1>;
> Genus(UnderlyingRing(K));
1
> pl:=Zeros(K!z)[1];
> Degree(pl);

> S<t>, mp := Completion(K,pl);
> IsDifferentialLaurentSeriesRing(S);
true
> C<c> := ConstantRing(S);
> C;
Number Field with defining polynomial $.1^2 + 1 over the Rational Field
> mp(y) + O(t^4);
