RatSols -- rational solutions of a holonomic system

Synopsis

Description

The rational solutions of a holonomic system form a finite-dimensional vector space. The only possibilities for the poles of a rational solution are the codimension one components of the singular locus. An algorithm to compute rational solutions is based on Groebner deformations and works for ideals I of PDE's -- see the paper 'Polynomial and rational solutions of a holonomic system' by Oaku-Takayama-Tsai (2000).

Caveat

The most efficient method to find rational solutions is to find the singular locus, then try to find its irreducible factors. With these, call RatSols(I, ff, w), where w should be generic enough so that the PolySols routine will not complain of a non-generic weight vector.
