Abstract

Based on Schreyer's algorithm (Schreyer, 1980, 1991; Berkesch and Schreyer, 2014), we present two refined algorithms for the computation of syzygies. The two main ideas of the first algorithm, called LiftHybrid, are the following: First, we may leave out certain terms of module elements during the computation which do not contribute to the result. These terms are called "lower order terms", see Definition 4.2. Second, we do not need to order the remaining terms of these module elements during the computation. This significantly reduces the number of monomial comparisons for the arithmetic operations. For the second algorithm, called LiftTree, we additionally cache some partial results and reuse them at the remaining steps.
