Abstract
We consider the Weyl algebra A (=A_n(k)) and its Rees algebra B with respect to the Bernstein filtration. The homogenisation of a differential operator in A is an element in B. In this paper we establish the validity of the division theorem for homogenized differential operators and Buchberger's algorithm for computing Groebner (or standard) bases in B. As an application we describe an algorithm for computing delta-standard bases in the Weyl algebra A.
