rationalMap(Ideal,ZZ,ZZ) -- makes a rational map from an ideal

Function: rationalMap
Usage:

rationalMap(I,d,e)

rationalMap(I,d)

rationalMap I
Inputs:
- I, an ideal, a homogeneous ideal in the coordinate ring of a projective variety $X\subseteq\mathbb{P}^n$
- d, an integer, a positive integer (or a list of integers in the case $X$ is embedded in a product of projective spaces)
- e, an integer, a positive integer (if omitted, it is taken to be 1)
Optional inputs:
- Dominant => ..., default value null,
Outputs:
- a rational map, the rational map $X\dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}^m$ defined by the linear system of hypersurfaces of degree $d$ having points of multiplicity $e$ along the projective subscheme of $X$ defined by $I$.

Description

In most cases, the command rationalMap(I,d,e) yields the same output as rationalMap(saturate(I^e),d), but the former is implemented using pure linear algebra.

The command rationalMap I is basically equivalent to rationalMap(I,max degrees I).

In the following example, we calculate the rational map defined by the linear system of cubic hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^6$ having double points along a Veronese surface $V\subset\mathbb{P}^5\subset\mathbb{P}^6$.
