-

name or set of names

real_cfs, padic_cfs

-

convertible to a Matrix of real numbers

adicities

-

convertible to a Vector of prime numbers

Description

• 

The HomogeneousDiophantine function finds a solution x1,,xn,y1,,ym over the integers to a set of inequalities of the form

a1,1x1+a1,nxn+...y1err1

...

aj,1x1+aj,nxn+...yjerrj

  

or   

padic:−valuepaj+1,1x1+aj+1,nxn+...yj+1,pj+1pj+1errj+1

...

padic:−valuepam,1x1+am,nxn+...ym,pmpmerrm

  

where padic:−valuep is the p-adic valuation.

• 

The inequalities can be described explicitly, corresponding to the first calling sequence, or implicitly, corresponding to the other calling sequences.

• 

If the first calling sequence is used, then the return value is of the form

x1=s1,...,xn=sn,y1=t1,...,ym=tm

• 

If the other calling sequences are used, then the return value is a two-element list corresponding to the x values and the y values,

s1,...,sn,t1,...,tm

The solutions may be different but both are valid.

Both abs and valuep may be used in the same system.

The error list for the p-adic cases are negatives of the exponents on the adicities.
