Polynomial Sequences

We call a finite list of polynomials a Polynomial Sequence.

Polynomial sequences in Sage can optionally be viewed as consisting of various parts or sub-sequences. These kind of polynomial sequences which naturally split into parts arise naturally for example in algebraic cryptanalysis of symmetric cryptographic primitives. The most prominent examples of these systems are: the small scale variants of the AES [CMR2005] (cf. sage.crypto.mq.sr.SR()) and Flurry/Curry [BPW2006]. By default, a polynomial sequence has exactly one part.

AUTHORS:

  • Martin Albrecht (2007ff): initial version

  • Martin Albrecht (2009): refactoring, clean-up, new functions

  • Martin Albrecht (2011): refactoring, moved to sage.rings.polynomial

  • Alex Raichev (2011-06): added algebraic_dependence()

  • Charles Bouillaguet (2013-1): added solve()

EXAMPLES:

As an example consider a small scale variant of the AES:

sage: sr = mq.SR(2,1,2,4,gf2=True,polybori=True)
sage: sr
SR(2,1,2,4)

We can construct a polynomial sequence for a random plaintext-ciphertext pair and study it:

sage: set_random_seed(1)
sage: F,s = sr.polynomial_system()
sage: F
Polynomial Sequence with 112 Polynomials in 64 Variables

sage: r2 = F.part(2); r2

sage: C[0].groebner_basis()

and compute the coefficient matrix:

Using these building blocks we can implement a simple XL algorithm easily:

sage: sr = mq.SR(1,1,1,4, gf2=True, polybori=True, order='lex')
sage: F,s = sr.polynomial_system()

sage: monomials = [a*b for a in F.variables() for b in F.variables() if a<b]
sage: len(monomials)
190
sage: F2 = Sequence(map(mul, cartesian_product_iterator((monomials, F))))
sage: A,v = F2.coefficient_matrix(sparse=False)
sage: A.echelonize()
sage: A

Note

In many other computer algebra systems (cf. Singular) this class would be called Ideal but an ideal is a very distinct object from its generators and thus this is not an ideal in Sage.

Classes

sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_sequence.PolynomialSequence(arg1, arg2=None, immutable=False, cr=False, cr_str=None)

Construct a new polynomial sequence object.

INPUT:

  • arg1 - a multivariate polynomial ring, an ideal or a matrix

  • arg2 - an iterable object of parts or polynomials (default:None)

    • immutable - if True the sequence is immutable (default: False)

    • cr - print a line break after each element (default: False)

    • cr_str - print a line break after each element if ‘str’ is called (default: None)

EXAMPLES:

sage: P.<a,b,c,d> = PolynomialRing(GF(127),4)
sage: I = sage.rings.ideal.Katsura(P)

If a list of tuples is provided, those form the parts:

sage: F = Sequence([I.gens(),I.gens()], I.ring()); F # indirect doctest
[a + 2*b + 2*c + 2*d - 1,
 a^2 + 2*b^2 + 2*c^2 + 2*d^2 - a,
 2*a*b + 2*b*c + 2*c*d - b,
 b^2 + 2*a*c + 2*b*d - c,
 a + 2*b + 2*c + 2*d - 1,
 a^2 + 2*b^2 + 2*c^2 + 2*d^2 - a,
 2*a*b + 2*b*c + 2*c*d - b,
 b^2 + 2*a*c + 2*b*d - c]
sage: F.nparts()
2

If an ideal is provided, the generators are used:

sage: Sequence(I)
[a + 2*b + 2*c + 2*d - 1,
 a^2 + 2*b^2 + 2*c^2 + 2*d^2 - a,
 2*a*b + 2*b*c + 2*c*d - b,
 b^2 + 2*a*c + 2*b*d - c]

If a list of polynomials is provided, the system has only one part:

sage: F = Sequence(I.gens(), I.ring()); F
[a + 2*b + 2*c + 2*d - 1,
 a^2 + 2*b^2 + 2*c^2 + 2*d^2 - a,
 2*a*b + 2*b*c + 2*c*d - b,
 b^2 + 2*a*c + 2*b*d - c]
 sage: F.nparts()
 1

We test that the ring is inferred correctly:

sage: P.<x,y,z> = GF(2)[]
sage: from sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_sequence import PolynomialSequence
sage: PolynomialSequence([1,x,y]).ring()
Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y, z over Finite Field of size 2

sage: PolynomialSequence([[1,x,y], [0]]).ring()
Multivariate Polynomial Ring in x, y, z over Finite Field of size 2
class sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_sequence.PolynomialSequence_generic(parts, ring, immutable=False, cr=False, cr_str=None)

Bases: sage.structure.sequence.Sequence_generic

Construct a new system of multivariate polynomials.

INPUT:

  • part - a list of lists with polynomials

  • ring - a multivariate polynomial ring

  • immutable - if True the sequence is immutable (default: False)

  • cr - print a line break after each element (default: False)

  • cr_str - print a line break after each element if ‘str’ is called (default: None)

EXAMPLES:

sage: P.<a,b,c,d> = PolynomialRing(GF(127),4)
sage: I = sage.rings.ideal.Katsura(P)

sage: Sequence([I.gens()], I.ring()) # indirect doctest
[a + 2*b + 2*c + 2*d - 1, a^2 + 2*b^2 + 2*c^2 + 2*d^2 - a, 2*a*b + 2*b*c + 2*c*d - b, b^2 + 2*a*c + 2*b*d - c]

If an ideal is provided, the generators are used.:

sage: Sequence(I)
[a + 2*b + 2*c + 2*d - 1, a^2 + 2*b^2 + 2*c^2 + 2*d^2 - a, 2*a*b + 2*b*c + 2*c*d - b, b^2 + 2*a*c + 2*b*d - c]

If a list of polynomials is provided, the system has only one part.:

sage: Sequence(I.gens(), I.ring())
[a + 2*b + 2*c + 2*d - 1, a^2 + 2*b^2 + 2*c^2 + 2*d^2 - a, 2*a*b + 2*b*c + 2*c*d - b, b^2 + 2*a*c + 2*b*d - c]
algebraic_dependence()

Returns the ideal of annihilating polynomials for the polynomials in self, if those polynomials are algebraically dependent. Otherwise, returns the zero ideal.

OUTPUT:

If the polynomials \(f_1,\ldots,f_r\) in self are algebraically dependent, then the output is the ideal \(\{F \in K[T_1,\ldots,T_r] : F(f_1,\ldots,f_r) = 0\}\) of annihilating polynomials of \(f_1,\ldots,f_r\). Here \(K\) is the coefficient ring of polynomial ring of \(f_1,\ldots,f_r\) and \(T_1,\ldots,T_r\) are new indeterminates. If \(f_1,\ldots,f_r\) are algebraically independent, then the output is the zero ideal in \(K[T_1,\ldots,T_r]\).

EXAMPLES:

sage: R.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(QQ)
sage: S = Sequence([x, x*y])
sage: I = S.algebraic_dependence(); I

sage: R.<x,y> = PolynomialRing(GF(7))
sage: S = Sequence([x, (x^2 + y^2 - 1)^2, x*y - 2])
sage: I = S.algebraic_dependence(); I
Ideal (2 - 3*T2 - T0^2 + 3*T2^2 - T0^2*T2 + T2^3 + 2*T0^4 - 2*T0^2*T2^2 + T2^4 - T0^4*T1 + T0^4*T2 - 2*T0^6 + 2*T0^4*T2^2 + T0^8) of Multivariate Polynomial Ring in T0, T1, T2 over Finite Field of size 7
sage: [F(S) for F in I.gens()]

Note

This function’s code also works for sequences of polynomials from a univariate polynomial ring, but i don’t know where in the Sage codebase to put it to use it to that effect.

coefficient_matrix(sparse=True)

Return tuple (A,v) where A is the coefficient matrix of this system and v the matching monomial vector.

Thus value of A[i,j] corresponds the coefficient of the monomial v[j] in the i-th polynomial in this system.

Monomials are order w.r.t. the term ordering of self.ring() in reverse order, i.e. such that the smallest entry comes last.

is_groebner(singular=Singular)

Returns True if the generators of this ideal (self.gens()) form a Groebner basis.

Let \(I\) be the set of generators of this ideal. The check is performed by trying to lift \(Syz(LM(I))\) to \(Syz(I)\) as \(I\) forms a Groebner basis if and only if for every element \(S\) in \(Syz(LM(I))\):

\(S * G = \sum_{i=0}^{m} h_ig_i ---->_G 0.\)

EXAMPLES:

sage: R.<a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j> = PolynomialRing(GF(127),10)
sage: I = sage.rings.ideal.Cyclic(R,4)
sage: I.basis.is_groebner()

sage: I2 = Ideal(I.groebner_basis())
sage: I2.basis.is_groebner()

sage: P.<x,y,z> = PolynomialRing(GF(7))
sage: F = Sequence([], universe=P)
sage: F.maximal_degree()
-1
monomials()

Return an unordered tuple of monomials in this polynomial system.

Return i-th part of this system.

EXAMPLES:

sage: sr = mq.SR(allow_zero_inversions=True)
sage: F,s = sr.polynomial_system()
sage: R0 = F.part(1)
sage: R0
(k000^2 + k001, k001^2 + k002, k002^2 + k003, k003^2 + k000)
parts()

sage: l = F.parts()
sage: len(l)

reduced()

If this sequence is \((f_1, ..., f_n)\) then this method returns \((g_1, ..., g_s)\) such that:

  • \((f_1,...,f_n) = (g_1,...,g_s)\)

  • \(LT(g_i) != LT(g_j)\) for all \(i != j\)

  • \(LT(g_i)\) does not divide \(m\) for all monomials \(m\) of

    \(\{g_1,...,g_{i-1},g_{i+1},...,g_s\}\)

  • \(LC(g_i) == 1\) for all \(i\) if the coefficient ring is a field.

EXAMPLES:

sage: R.<x,y,z> = PolynomialRing(QQ)
sage: F = Sequence([z*x+y^3,z+y^3,z+x*y])
sage: F.reduced()
[y^3 + z, x*y + z, x*z - z]

Note that tail reduction for local orderings is not well-defined:

sage: R.<x,y,z> = PolynomialRing(QQ,order='negdegrevlex')
sage: F = Sequence([z*x+y^3,z+y^3,z+x*y])
sage: F.reduced()
[z + x*y, x*y - y^3, x^2*y - y^3]

sage: K.<x,y>=R.fraction_field()['x,y']
sage: I=t*x*K
sage: I.basis.reduced()
[x]

The interreduced basis of 0 is 0:

sage: P.<x,y,z> = GF(2)[]
sage: Sequence([P(0)]).reduced()
[0]

Leading coefficients are reduced to 1:

sage: P.<x,y> = QQ[]
sage: Sequence([2*x,y]).reduced()
[x, y]

sage: P.<x,y> = CC[]
sage: Sequence([2*x,y]).reduced()
[x, y]

ALGORITHM:

Uses Singular’s interred command or sage.rings.polynomial.toy_buchberger.inter_reduction() if conversion to Singular fails.

EXAMPLES:

sage: sr = mq.SR(allow_zero_inversions=True,gf2=True,order='block')
sage: F,s = sr.polynomial_system()
sage: print(F.ring().repr_long())

INPUT:

  • args - arguments to be passed to MPolynomial.subs

  • kwargs - keyword arguments to be passed to MPolynomial.subs

EXAMPLES:

sage: sr = mq.SR(allow_zero_inversions=True)
sage: F,s = sr.polynomial_system(); F
Polynomial Sequence with 40 Polynomials in 20 Variables
sage: F = F.subs(s); F

EXAMPLES:

sage: sr = mq.SR(allow_zero_inversions=True,gf2=True,order='block')
sage: F,s = sr.polynomial_system()
sage: print(F.ring().repr_long())

             Names    : k000, k001, k002, k003
variables()

Return all variables present in this system. This tuple may or may not be equal to the generators of the ring of this system.

EXAMPLES:

sage: sr = mq.SR(allow_zero_inversions=True)
sage: F,s = sr.polynomial_system()
sage: F.variables()[:10]
(k003, k002, k001, k000, s003, s002, s001, s000, w103, w102)
class sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_sequence.PolynomialSequence_gf2(parts, ring, immutable=False, cr=False, cr_str=None)

Bases: sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_sequence.PolynomialSequence_generic

Polynomial Sequences over \(\GF{2}\).

eliminate_linear_variables(maxlength=+ Infinity, skip=None, return_reductors=False, use_polybori=False)

Return a new system where linear leading variables are eliminated if the tail of the polynomial has length at most maxlength.

INPUT:

  • maxlength - an optional upper bound on the number of monomials by which a variable is replaced. If maxlength==+Infinity then no condition is checked. (default: +Infinity).

  • skip - an optional callable to skip eliminations. It must accept two parameters and return either True or False. The two parameters are the leading term and the tail of a polynomial (default: None).

  • return_reductors - if True the list of polynomials with linear leading terms which were used for reduction is also returned (default: False).

  • `use_polybori - if True then polybori.ll.eliminate is called. While this is typically faster what is implemented here, it is less flexible (skip` is not supported) and may increase the degree (default: ``False)

OUTPUT:

When return_reductors==True, then a pair of sequences of boolean polynomials are returned, along with the promises that:

  1. The union of the two sequences spans the same boolean ideal as the argument of the method

  2. The second sequence only contains linear polynomials, and it forms a reduced groebner basis (they all have pairwise distinct leading variables, and the leading variable of a polynomial does not occur anywhere in other polynomials).

  3. The leading variables of the second sequence do not occur anywhere in the first sequence (these variables have been eliminated).

When return_reductors==False, only the first sequence is returned.

EXAMPLES:

sage: B.<a,b,c,d> = BooleanPolynomialRing()
sage: F = Sequence([c + d + b + 1, a + c + d, a*b + c, b*c*d + c])
sage: F.eliminate_linear_variables() # everything vanishes
[]
sage: F.eliminate_linear_variables(maxlength=2)
[b + c + d + 1, b*c + b*d + c, b*c*d + c]
sage: F.eliminate_linear_variables(skip=lambda lm,tail: str(lm)=='a')
[a + c + d, a*c + a*d + a + c, c*d + c]

The list of reductors can be requested by setting ‘return_reductors’ to True:

sage: B.<a,b,c,d> = BooleanPolynomialRing()
sage: F = Sequence([a + b + d, a + b + c])
sage: F,R = F.eliminate_linear_variables(return_reductors=True)
sage: F
[]
sage: R
[a + b + d, c + d]

If the input system is detected to be inconsistent then [1] is returned and the list of reductors is empty:

sage: R.<x,y,z> = BooleanPolynomialRing()
sage: S = Sequence([x*y*z+x*y+z*y+x*z, x+y+z+1, x+y+z])
sage: S.eliminate_linear_variables()
[1]

sage: R.<x,y,z> = BooleanPolynomialRing()
sage: S = Sequence([x*y*z+x*y+z*y+x*z, x+y+z+1, x+y+z])
sage: S.eliminate_linear_variables(return_reductors=True)
([1], [])

Note

This is called “massaging” in [BCJ2007].

reduced()

If this sequence is \((f_1, ..., f_n)\) this method returns \((g_1, ..., g_s)\) such that:

  • \(<f_1,...,f_n> = <g_1,...,g_s>\)

  • \(LT(g_i) != LT(g_j)\) for all \(i != j\)

  • \(LT(g_i)\) does not divide \(m\) for all monomials \(m\) of \({g_1,...,g_{i-1},g_{i+1},...,g_s}\)

EXAMPLES:

sage: sr = mq.SR(1, 1, 1, 4, gf2=True, polybori=True)
sage: F,s = sr.polynomial_system()
sage: F.reduced()
[k100 + 1, k101 + k001 + 1, k102, k103 + 1, ..., s002, s003 + k001 + 1, k000 + 1, k002 + 1, k003 + 1]
solve(algorithm='polybori', n=1, eliminate_linear_variables=True, verbose=False, **kwds)

Find solutions of this boolean polynomial system.

This function provide a unified interface to several algorithms dedicated to solving systems of boolean equations. Depending on the particular nature of the system, some might be much faster than some others.

INPUT:

  • self - a sequence of boolean polynomials

  • algorithm - the method to use. Possible values are polybori, sat and exhaustive_search. (default: polybori, since it is always available)

  • n - number of solutions to return. If n == +Infinity then all solutions are returned. If \(n < \infty\) then \(n\) solutions are returned if the equations have at least \(n\) solutions. Otherwise, all the solutions are returned. (default: 1)

  • eliminate_linear_variables - whether to eliminate variables that appear linearly. This reduces the number of variables (makes solving faster a priori), but is likely to make the equations denser (may make solving slower depending on the method).

  • verbose - whether to display progress and (potentially) useful information while the computation runs. (default: False)

EXAMPLES:

Without argument, a single arbitrary solution is returned:

sage: from sage.doctest.fixtures import reproducible_repr
sage: R.<x,y,z> = BooleanPolynomialRing()
sage: S = Sequence([x*y+z, y*z+x, x+y+z+1])
sage: sol = S.solve()
sage: print(reproducible_repr(sol))
[{x: 0, y: 1, z: 0}]

We check that it is actually a solution:

sage: S.subs( sol[0] )
[0, 0, 0]

We obtain all solutions:

sage: sols = S.solve(n=Infinity)
sage: print(reproducible_repr(sols))
[{x: 0, y: 1, z: 0}, {x: 1, y: 1, z: 1}]
sage: [S.subs(x) for x in sols]
[[0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0]]

We can force the use of exhaustive search if the optional package FES is present:

sage: sol = S.solve(algorithm='exhaustive_search')  # optional - FES
sage: print(reproducible_repr(sol))  # optional - FES
[{x: 1, y: 1, z: 1}]
sage: S.subs( sol[0] )
[0, 0, 0]

And we may use SAT-solvers if they are available:

sage: sol = S.solve(algorithm='sat') # optional - cryptominisat
sage: print(reproducible_repr(sol))  # optional - cryptominisat
[{x: 0, y: 1, z: 0}]
sage: S.subs( sol[0] )
[0, 0, 0]

weil_restriction()

x1^2 + x1, y0^2 + y0, y1^2 + y1]

sage.rings.polynomial.multi_polynomial_sequence.is_PolynomialSequence(F)

Return True if F is a PolynomialSequence.

INPUT:

sage: I = [[x^2 + y^2], [x^2 - y^2]]
sage: F = Sequence(I, P); F
