A.7.2 Right Groebner bases and syzygies

Most of the SINGULAR:PLURAL commands correspond to the left-sided computations, that is left Groebner bases, left syzygies, left resolutions and so on. However, the right-sided computations can be done, using the left-sided functionality and opposite algebras.

In the example below, we consider the algebra $A:=U(sl_2)$ and a set of generators $I = \{ e^2, f \}$.

We will compute a left Groebner basis LI and a left syzygy module LS of a left ideal, generated by the set $I$.

Then, we define the opposite algebra Aop of A, set it as a basering, and create opposite objects of already computed ones.

Further on, we compute a right Groebner basis RI and a right syzygy module RS of a right ideal, generated by the set $I$ in $A$.
