Free algebras

AUTHORS:

- David Kohel (2005-09)

- William Stein (2006-11-01): add all doctests; implemented many
  things.

- Simon King (2011-04): Put free algebras into the category framework.
  Reimplement free algebra constructor, using a
  :class:`~sage.structure.factory.UniqueFactory` for handling
  different implementations of free algebras. Allow degree weights
  for free algebras in letterplace implementation.

EXAMPLES::

    sage: F = FreeAlgebra(ZZ,3,'x,y,z')
    sage: F.base_ring()
    Integer Ring
    sage: G = FreeAlgebra(F, 2, 'm,n'); G
    Free Algebra on 2 generators (m, n) over Free Algebra on 3 generators (x, y, z) over Integer Ring
    sage: G.base_ring()
    Free Algebra on 3 generators (x, y, z) over Integer Ring

The above free algebra is based on a generic implementation. By
:trac:`7797`, there is a different implementation
:class:`~sage.algebras.letterplace.free_algebra_letterplace.FreeAlgebra_letterplace`
based on Singular's letterplace rings. It is currently restricted to
weighted homogeneous elements and is therefore not the default. But the
arithmetic is much faster than in the generic implementation.
Moreover, we can compute Groebner bases with degree bound for its
two-sided ideals, and thus provide ideal containment tests::

    sage: F.<x,y,z> = FreeAlgebra(QQ, implementation='letterplace')
    sage: F
    Free Associative Unital Algebra on 3 generators (x, y, z) over Rational Field
    sage: I = F*[x*y+y*z,x^2+x*y-y*x-y^2]*F
    sage: I.groebner_basis(degbound=4)
    Twosided Ideal (y*z*y*y - y*z*y*z + y*z*z*y - y*z*z*z, y*z*y*x + y*z*y*z + y*z*z*x + y*z*z*z, y*y*z*y - y*y*z*z + y*z*z*y - y*z*z*z, y*y*z*x + y*y*z*z + y*z*z*x + y*z*z*z, y*y*y - y*y*z + y*z*y - y*z*z, y*y*x + y*y*z + y*z*x + y*z*z, x*y + y*z, x*x - y*x - y*y - y*z) of Free Associative Unital Algebra on 3 generators (x, y, z) over Rational Field
    sage: y*z*y*y*z*z + 2*y*z*y*z*z*x + y*z*y*z*z*z - y*z*z*y*z*x + y*z*z*z*z*x in I
    True

Positive integral degree weights for the letterplace implementation
was introduced in :trac:`7797`::

    sage: F.<x,y,z> = FreeAlgebra(QQ, implementation='letterplace', degrees=[2,1,3])
    sage: x.degree()
    2
    sage: y.degree()
    1
    sage: z.degree()
    3
    sage: I = F*[x*y-y*x, x^2+2*y*z, (x*y)^2-z^2]*F
    sage: Q.<a,b,c> = F.quo(I)
    sage: TestSuite(Q).run()
    sage: a^2*b^2
    c*c

TESTS::

    sage: F = FreeAlgebra(GF(5),3,'x')
    sage: TestSuite(F).run()
    sage: F is loads(dumps(F))
    True
    sage: F = FreeAlgebra(GF(5),3,'x', implementation='letterplace')

    sage: TestSuite(F).run()
    sage: F is loads(dumps(F))
    True

::

    sage: F = FreeAlgebra(GF(5),3, ['xx', 'zba', 'Y'])
    sage: TestSuite(F).run()
    sage: F is loads(dumps(F))
    True
    sage: F = FreeAlgebra(GF(5),3, ['xx', 'zba', 'Y'], implementation='letterplace')

::

    sage: F = FreeAlgebra(FreeAlgebra(ZZ,2,'ab'), 2, 'x')
    sage: TestSuite(F).run()
    sage: F is loads(dumps(F))
    True

Note that the letterplace implementation can only be used if the corresponding
(multivariate) polynomial ring has an implementation in Singular::

    sage: FreeAlgebra(FreeAlgebra(ZZ,2,'ab'), 2, 'x', implementation='letterplace')
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
    NotImplementedError: The letterplace implementation is not available for the free algebra you requested

    algebras, based on Singular's "letterplace rings". Our letterplace
    wrapper allows for chosing positive integral degree weights for the
    generators of the free algebra. However, only (weighted) homogenous
    elements are supported. Of course, isomorphic algebras in different
    implementations are not identical::

        sage: G is FreeAlgebra(GF(5),['x','y','z'], implementation='letterplace')
