Calling Sequence

a/b

Divide(a, b)

Parameters

a

-

power series generated by this package

b

-

power series generated by this package

Description

• 

The commands a/b and Divide(a,b) return the product of a by the inverse of b. The power series b is required to be  invertible, that is, b must have a nonzero constant term.

• 

When using the MultivariatePowerSeries package, do not assign anything to the variables occurring in the power series, Puiseux series, and univariate polynomials over these series. If you do, you may see invalid results.

Examples

withMultivariatePowerSeries:

We define two power series in the variables x, y, and z.

aGeometricSeriesx,y

aPowⅇrSⅇrⅈⅇs of 11xy : 1+x+y+

(1)

bPowerSeries1+x+y+z

bPowⅇrSⅇrⅈⅇs: 1+x+y+z

(2)

We define the quotient of a by b in two equivalent ways.

cPowⅇrSⅇrⅈⅇs of 11xy1+x+y+z : 1+

(3)

dDividea,b

dPowⅇrSⅇrⅈⅇs of 11xy1+x+y+z : 1+

(4)

We verify that the homogeneous parts of degree at most 20 of c and d are equal.
