tLexMon -- give the smallest initial t-lex segment containing a given monomial

Synopsis

Description

the function tLexMon(u,t) gives the initial t-lex segment defined by u, that is, the set of all the t-spread monomials greater than u, with respect to $>_\mathrm{slex}.$
This function calls the method tLexSeg(v,u,t), where v is the greatest t-spread monomial of the polynomial ring. Let $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ and $u\in M_{n,d,t}$, then $v=x_1x_{1+t}\cdots x_{1+(d-1)t}$.
