A header only library for manipulation and evaluation of symbolic integer polynomials.
All of the symbolic expressions have three template types associated with them.
- I - the type that uniquely identifies a single symbolic variable
- C - the type of the free coefficient in every monomial
- P - the type of the power used in every monomial
The main class you most likely will be using is Polynomial<I, C, P>
, which
represents any symbolic polynomial. The easiest way to create single variables
(e.g. like a
, b
, c
...) is by calling variable(I id)
. The will be a
unique identification of the variable. From there you can use standard
arithmetic operators with both other symbolic expressions and with constants.
If you want to evaluate a symbolic expression, you can call its eval
method,
which requires you to specify a mapping from unique identifiers to their assignments.
You can also use automatic deduction to solve a system of equations.
The ordering of both the polynomials and monomials are based on
Graded reverse lexicographic order
derived from the ordering on I
. Note that this requires the comparison operators
to be implemented for type I
.
The library provide a method to_stirng
to convert any expression to a humanly
readable format. Additionally the to_code
method renders powers as repeated
multiplications, and the output string would look like code snippet.
Since this is only a header only library all you have to do is to
include the main header file symbolic_integers.h
.
If you want to run the tests or compile the example you will need to
build the project. Don't forget to initialize the googletest submodule
via git submodule update --init --recursive
.
Below is the code for a the example found in the examples
directory.

typedef uint8_t P;

typedef md::sym::ImplicitValues<std::string, int64_t, uint8_t> ImplicitValues;
int main(){
// Create symbolic variables
auto a = md::sym::variable<I, C, P>("a");
auto b = md::sym::variable<I, C, P>("b");
auto c = md::sym::variable<I, C, P>("c");
// Build polynomials
auto poly1 = 5 * b + 2;
auto poly2 = a * b;
auto poly3 = (b + c) * (a + 1);
auto poly4 = a * a - a * b + 12;
auto poly5 = (a + b + 1) * (c*2 + 3);
auto poly6 = floor(b * b, a * a);
auto poly7 = ceil(b * b, a * a);
auto poly8 = min(a * b + 12, a * b + a);
auto poly9 = max(a * b + 12, a * b + a);
auto poly10 = max(floor(a * a, b) - 4, ceil(c, b) + 1);

2ac + 3a + 2bc + 3b + 2c + 3 = 2 * a * c + 3 * a + 2 * b * c + 3 * b + 2 * c + 3
floor(b^2, a^2) = floor(b * b, a * a)
ceil(b^2, a^2) = ceil(b * b, a * a)
min(ab + 12, ab + a) = min(a * b + 12, a * b + a)
max(ab + 12, ab + a) = ceil(b * b, a * a)

You can check out the tests in the tests
folder for more examples.
Currently, the automatic deduction for solving system of equations is pretty limited. The main reason is that for the purposes that the project has been developed it is sufficient. A more powerful and complete algorithm would probably use Grobner basis.
