Toric lattices¶

This module was designed as a part of the framework for toric varieties (variety, fano_variety).

All toric lattices are isomorphic to \(\ZZ^n\) for some \(n\), but will prevent you from doing “wrong” operations with objects from different lattices.

EXAMPLES:

The simplest way to create a toric lattice is to specify its dimension only:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)
sage: N
3-d lattice N

While our lattice N is called exactly “N” it is a coincidence: all lattices are called “N” by default:

sage: another_name = ToricLattice(3)
sage: another_name
3-d lattice N

If fact, the above lattice is exactly the same as before as an object in memory:

sage: N is another_name
True

There are actually four names associated to a toric lattice and they all must be the same for two lattices to coincide:

sage: N, N.dual(), latex(N), latex(N.dual())
(3-d lattice N, 3-d lattice M, N, M)

Notice that the lattice dual to N is called “M” which is standard in toric geometry. This happens only if you allow completely automatic handling of names:

sage: another_N = ToricLattice(3, "N")
sage: another_N.dual()
3-d lattice N*
sage: N is another_N
False

What can you do with toric lattices? Well, their main purpose is to allow creation of elements of toric lattices:

sage: n = N([1,2,3])
sage: n
N(1, 2, 3)
sage: M = N.dual()
sage: m = M(1,2,3)
sage: m
M(1, 2, 3)

Dual lattices can act on each other:

sage: n * m
14
sage: m * n
14

You can also add elements of the same lattice or scale them:

sage: 2 * n
N(2, 4, 6)
sage: n * 2
N(2, 4, 6)
sage: n + n
N(2, 4, 6)

However, you cannot “mix wrong lattices” in your expressions:

sage: n + m
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
TypeError: unsupported operand parent(s) for +:
'3-d lattice N' and '3-d lattice M'
sage: n * n
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
TypeError: elements of the same toric lattice cannot be multiplied!
sage: n == m
False

Note that n and m are not equal to each other even though they are both “just (1,2,3).” Moreover, you cannot easily convert elements between toric lattices:

sage: M(n)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
TypeError: N(1, 2, 3) cannot be converted to 3-d lattice M!

If you really need to consider elements of one lattice as elements of another, you can either use intermediate conversion to “just a vector”:

sage: ZZ3 = ZZ^3
sage: n_in_M = M(ZZ3(n))
sage: n_in_M
M(1, 2, 3)
sage: n == n_in_M
False
sage: n_in_M == m
True

Or you can create a homomorphism from one lattice to any other:

sage: h = N.hom(identity_matrix(3), M)
sage: h(n)
M(1, 2, 3)

Warning

While integer vectors (elements of \(\ZZ^n\)) are printed as (1,2,3), in the code (1,2,3) is a tuple, which has nothing to do neither with vectors, nor with toric lattices, so the following is probably not what you want while working with toric geometry objects:

sage: (1,2,3) + (1,2,3)
(1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3)

Instead, use syntax like

sage: N(1,2,3) + N(1,2,3)
N(2, 4, 6)

class sage.geometry.toric_lattice.ToricLatticeFactory¶

Bases: sage.structure.factory.UniqueFactory

Create a lattice for toric geometry objects.

INPUT:

rank – nonnegative integer, the only mandatory parameter;
name – string;
dual_name – string;
latex_name – string;
latex_dual_name – string.

OUTPUT:

lattice.

A toric lattice is uniquely determined by its rank and associated names. There are four such “associated names” whose meaning should be clear from the names of the corresponding parameters, but the choice of default values is a little bit involved. So here is the full description of the “naming algorithm”:

If no names were given at all, then this lattice will be called “N” and the dual one “M”. These are the standard choices in toric geometry.
If name was given and dual_name was not, then dual_name will be name followed by “*”.
If LaTeX names were not given, they will coincide with the “usual” names, but if dual_name was constructed automatically, the trailing star will be typeset as a superscript.

EXAMPLES:

Let’s start with no names at all and see how automatic names are given:

sage: L1 = ToricLattice(3)
sage: L1
3-d lattice N
sage: L1.dual()
3-d lattice M

If we give the name “N” explicitly, the dual lattice will be called “N*”:

sage: L2 = ToricLattice(3, "N")
sage: L2
3-d lattice N
sage: L2.dual()
3-d lattice N*

However, we can give an explicit name for it too:

sage: L3 = ToricLattice(3, "N", "M")
sage: L3
3-d lattice N
sage: L3.dual()
3-d lattice M

If you want, you may also give explicit LaTeX names:

sage: L4 = ToricLattice(3, "N", "M", r"\mathbb{N}", r"\mathbb{M}")
sage: latex(L4)
\mathbb{N}
sage: latex(L4.dual())
\mathbb{M}

While all four lattices above are called “N”, only two of them are equal (and are actually the same):

sage: L1 == L2
False
sage: L1 == L3
True
sage: L1 is L3
True
sage: L1 == L4
False

The reason for this is that L2 and L4 have different names either for dual lattices or for LaTeX typesetting.

create_key(rank, name=None, dual_name=None, latex_name=None, latex_dual_name=None)¶

Create a key that uniquely identifies this toric lattice.

See ToricLattice for documentation.

Warning

You probably should not use this function directly.

create_object(version, key)¶

See ToricLattice for documentation.

Warning

There should be only one toric lattice with the given rank and associated names. Using this class directly to create toric lattices may lead to unexpected results. Please, use ToricLattice to create toric lattices.

Element¶: alias of sage.geometry.toric_lattice_element.ToricLatticeElement

ambient_module()¶

Return the ambient module of self.

OUTPUT:

Note

For any ambient toric lattice its ambient module is the lattice itself.

3-d lattice N
sage: N.ambient_module() is N
True

EXAMPLES:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)

True

Elements of dual lattices can act on each other:

sage: n * m
32
sage: m * n
32

class sage.geometry.toric_lattice.ToricLattice_generic(base_ring, rank, degree, sparse=False, coordinate_ring=None)¶

Bases: sage.modules.free_module.FreeModule_generic_pid

Abstract base class for toric lattices.

Element¶: alias of sage.geometry.toric_lattice_element.ToricLatticeElement

construction()¶

Return the functorial construction of self.

OUTPUT:

None, we do not think of toric lattices as constructed from simpler objects since we do not want to perform arithmetic involving different lattices.

direct_sum(other)¶

Return the direct sum with other.

INPUT:

other – a toric lattice or more general module.

OUTPUT:

The direct sum of self and other as \(\ZZ\)-modules. If other is a ToricLattice, another toric lattice will be returned.

EXAMPLES:

sage: K = ToricLattice(3, 'K')
sage: L = ToricLattice(3, 'L')
sage: N = K.direct_sum(L); N
6-d lattice K+L
sage: N, N.dual(), latex(N), latex(N.dual())
(6-d lattice K+L, 6-d lattice K*+L*, K \oplus L, K^* \oplus L^*)

With default names:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3).direct_sum(ToricLattice(2))
sage: N, N.dual(), latex(N), latex(N.dual())
(5-d lattice N+N, 5-d lattice M+M, N \oplus N, M \oplus M)

If other is not a ToricLattice, fall back to sum of modules:

sage: ToricLattice(3).direct_sum(ZZ^2)
Free module of degree 5 and rank 5 over Integer Ring
Echelon basis matrix:
[1 0 0 0 0]
[0 1 0 0 0]
[0 0 1 0 0]
[0 0 0 1 0]
[0 0 0 0 1]

intersection(other)¶

Return the intersection of self and other.

INPUT:

other - a toric (sub)lattice.dual

OUTPUT:

a toric (sub)lattice.

EXAMPLES:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)
sage: Ns1 = N.submodule([N(2,4,0), N(9,12,0)])
sage: Ns2 = N.submodule([N(1,4,9), N(9,2,0)])
sage: Ns1.intersection(Ns2)
Sublattice <N(54, 12, 0)>

Note that if one of the intersecting sublattices is a sublattice of another, no new lattices will be constructed:

sage: N.intersection(N) is N
True
sage: Ns1.intersection(N) is Ns1
True
sage: N.intersection(Ns1) is Ns1
True

quotient(sub, check=True, positive_point=None, positive_dual_point=None, **kwds)¶

Return the quotient of self by the given sublattice sub.

INPUT:

sub – sublattice of self;
check – (default: True) whether or not to check that sub is a valid sublattice.

If the quotient is one-dimensional and torsion free, the following two mutually exclusive keyword arguments are also allowed. They decide the sign choice for the (single) generator of the quotient lattice:

positive_point – a lattice point of self not in the sublattice sub (that is, not zero in the quotient lattice). The quotient generator will be in the same direction as positive_point.
positive_dual_point – a dual lattice point. The quotient generator will be chosen such that its lift has a positive product with positive_dual_point. Note: if positive_dual_point is not zero on the sublattice sub, then the notion of positivity will depend on the choice of lift!

Further named arguments are passed to the constructor of a toric lattice quotient.

EXAMPLES:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)
sage: Ns = N.submodule([N(2,4,0), N(9,12,0)])
sage: Q = N/Ns
sage: Q
Quotient with torsion of 3-d lattice N
by Sublattice <N(1, 8, 0), N(0, 12, 0)>

Attempting to quotient one lattice by a sublattice of another will result in a ValueError:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)
sage: M = ToricLattice(3, name='M')
sage: Ms = M.submodule([M(2,4,0), M(9,12,0)])
sage: N.quotient(Ms)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: M(1, 8, 0) cannot generate a sublattice of
3-d lattice N

However, if we forget the sublattice structure, then it is possible to quotient by vector spaces or modules constructed from any sublattice:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)
sage: M = ToricLattice(3, name='M')
sage: Ms = M.submodule([M(2,4,0), M(9,12,0)])
sage: N.quotient(Ms.vector_space())
Quotient with torsion of 3-d lattice N by Sublattice
<N(1, 8, 0), N(0, 12, 0)>
sage: N.quotient(Ms.sparse_module())
Quotient with torsion of 3-d lattice N by Sublattice
<N(1, 8, 0), N(0, 12, 0)>

See ToricLattice_quotient for more examples.

sage: Ns = N.submodule([(1,2,3), (4,5,6)])
sage: Ns
Sublattice <N(1, 2, 3), N(0, 3, 6)>
sage: Ns_sat = Ns.saturation()
sage: Ns_sat
Sublattice <N(1, 0, -1), N(0, 1, 2)>
sage: Ns_sat is Ns_sat.saturation()
True

span(gens, base_ring=Integer Ring, *args, **kwds)¶

Return the span of the given generators.

INPUT:

gens – list of elements of the ambient vector space of self.
base_ring – (default: \(\ZZ\)) base ring for the generated module.

OUTPUT:

submodule spanned by gens.

Note

The output need not be a submodule of self, nor even of the ambient space. It must, however, be contained in the ambient vector space.

EXAMPLES:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)
sage: Ns = N.submodule([N.gen(0)])
sage: Ns.span([N.gen(1)])
Sublattice <N(0, 1, 0)>
sage: Ns.submodule([N.gen(1)])
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ArithmeticError: Argument gens (= [N(0, 1, 0)])
does not generate a submodule of self.

span_of_basis(basis, base_ring=Integer Ring, *args, **kwds)¶

Return the submodule with the given basis.

INPUT:

basis – list of elements of the ambient vector space of self.
base_ring – (default: \(\ZZ\)) base ring for the generated module.

OUTPUT:

submodule spanned by basis.

Note

The output need not be a submodule of self, nor even of the ambient space. It must, however, be contained in the ambient vector space.

EXAMPLES:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)
sage: Ns = N.span_of_basis([(1,2,3)])
sage: Ns.span_of_basis([(2,4,0)])
Sublattice <N(2, 4, 0)>
sage: Ns.span_of_basis([(1/5,2/5,0), (1/7,1/7,0)])
Free module of degree 3 and rank 2 over Integer Ring
User basis matrix:
[1/5 2/5   0]
[1/7 1/7   0]

Of course the input basis vectors must be linearly independent:

sage: Ns.span_of_basis([(1,2,0), (2,4,0)])
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: The given basis vectors must be linearly independent.

class sage.geometry.toric_lattice.ToricLattice_quotient(V, W, check=True, positive_point=None, positive_dual_point=None, **kwds)¶

Bases: sage.modules.fg_pid.fgp_module.FGP_Module_class

Construct the quotient of a toric lattice V by its sublattice W.

INPUT:

V – ambient toric lattice;
W – sublattice of V;
check – (default: True) whether to check correctness of input or not.

positive_point – a lattice point of self not in the sublattice sub (that is, not zero in the quotient lattice). The quotient generator will be in the same direction as positive_point.
positive_dual_point – a dual lattice point. The quotient generator will be chosen such that its lift has a positive product with positive_dual_point. Note: if positive_dual_point is not zero on the sublattice sub, then the notion of positivity will depend on the choice of lift!

Further given named arguments are passed to the constructor of an FGP module.

OUTPUT:

quotient of V by W.

EXAMPLES:

The intended way to get objects of this class is to use quotient() method of toric lattices:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)
sage: sublattice = N.submodule([(1,1,0), (3,2,1)])
sage: Q = N/sublattice
sage: Q
1-d lattice, quotient of 3-d lattice N by Sublattice <N(1, 0, 1), N(0, 1, -1)>
sage: Q.gens()
(N[1, 0, 0],)

Here, sublattice happens to be of codimension one in N. If you want to prescribe the sign of the quotient generator, you can do either:

sage: Q = N.quotient(sublattice, positive_point=N(0,0,-1)); Q
1-d lattice, quotient of 3-d lattice N by Sublattice <N(1, 0, 1), N(0, 1, -1)>
sage: Q.gens()
(N[1, 0, 0],)

or:

sage: M = N.dual()
sage: Q = N.quotient(sublattice, positive_dual_point=M(1,0,0)); Q
1-d lattice, quotient of 3-d lattice N by Sublattice <N(1, 0, 1), N(0, 1, -1)>

(N[0, -1, 0],)

is_torsion_free()¶

Check if self is torsion-free.

Warning

You probably should not construct such elements explicitly.

INPUT:

same as for FGP_Element.

OUTPUT:

element of a toric lattice quotient.

set_immutable()¶

Make self immutable.

OUTPUT:

none.

Note

Elements of toric lattice quotients are always immutable, so this method does nothing, it is introduced for compatibility purposes only.

EXAMPLES:

ambient – ambient toric lattice for this sublattice;

see the base class for other available options.

OUTPUT:

sublattice of a toric lattice with an automatically chosen basis.

See also ToricLattice_sublattice_with_basis if you want to specify an explicit basis.

sage: sublattice.has_user_basis()
False
sage: sublattice.basis()
[
N(1, 0, 1),

]

For sublattices without user-specified basis, the basis obtained above is the same as the “standard” one:

sage: sublattice.echelonized_basis()
[
N(1, 0, 1),
N(0, 1, -1)
]

class sage.geometry.toric_lattice.ToricLattice_sublattice_with_basis(ambient, basis, check=True, echelonize=False, echelonized_basis=None, already_echelonized=False)¶

Bases: sage.geometry.toric_lattice.ToricLattice_generic, sage.modules.free_module.FreeModule_submodule_with_basis_pid

basis – list of linearly independent elements of ambient, these elements will be used as the default basis of the constructed sublattice;
see the base class for other available options.

OUTPUT:

See also ToricLattice_sublattice if you do not want to specify an explicit basis.

EXAMPLES:

The intended way to get objects of this class is to use submodule_with_basis() method of toric lattices:

sage: N = ToricLattice(3)
sage: sublattice = N.submodule_with_basis([(1,1,0), (3,2,1)])
sage: sublattice.has_user_basis()
True
sage: sublattice.basis()
[
N(1, 1, 0),

[
N(1, 0, 1),
N(0, 1, -1)
]

dual()¶

Return the lattice dual to self.

OUTPUT:

a toric lattice quotient.
