Abstract

Let k[x1, . . . ,xn] be a polynomial ring in n variables, and let I ⊂ k[x1, . . . , xn] be a homogeneous binomial ideal. We describe a fast algorithm to compute the saturation, I : (x1 ...xn)∞. In the special case when I is a toric ideal, we present some preliminary results comparing our algorithm with Project and Lift by Hemmecke and Malkin.
