makeB'Slice -- makeB'Slice creates a hash table that represents a linear slice.

Synopsis

Description

makeB'Slice allows for easy creation of equations that define linear spaces, i.e. slices. The default creates a hash table with two keys: B'NumberCoefficients and B'SectionString. When we have a multiprojective variety we can different types of slices. To make a slice we need to specify the type of slice we want followed by variable groups.

i1 : sliceType={1,1}

o1 = {1, 1}

o1 : List
i2 : variableGroups={{x0,x1},{y0,y1,y2}}

o2 = {{x0, x1}, {y0, y1, y2}}

o2 : List
i3 : xySlice=makeB'Slice(sliceType,variableGroups)

o3 = B'Slice{...4...}

o3 : B'Slice
i4 : peek xySlice

o4 = B'Slice{B'NumberCoefficients => {{1.49144+.713846*ii, -.840113+1.1986*ii}, {.014842+1.23548*ii, -.214468+.911293*ii, -.486176+.400577*ii}}                       }
