the h-vector of a module or quotient object
HVector(M: RING or TAGGED("Quotient")): LIST |
This function returns the h-vector of
M
, i.e. the coefficients of the
numerator of the simplified Poincare series for
M
.
M
can be a
module or a quotient.
The weights of the indeterminates of the polynomial ring of
M
must all
be 1, and the coefficient ring must be a field.
If the input is not homogeneous, the Hilbert function of the
corresponding leading term (initial) ideal or module is calculated.
