kroneckerIndices -- data which classify a matrix pencil up to strict equivalence

Synopsis

Description

This function gives data which classify a matrix pencil up to strict equivalence. That is, these data determine the Kronecker normal form of the pencil, up to rearranging the blocks.
i1 : R = ZZ/101[x,y]

o1 = R

o1 : PolynomialRing
i2 : A = matrix{{x,y,x,y},{y,x,y,x},{x,y,x,y},{y,y,y,y},{x,x,y,y}}

o2 = | x y x y |
     | y x y x |
     | x y x y |
     | y y y y |
     | x x y y |
