PolynomialReduce

PolynomialReduce[poly, {poly1, poly2, ...}, {x1, x2, ...}]
yields a list representing a reduction of poly in terms of the polyi. The list has the form {{a1, a2, ...}, b}, where b is minimal and a1 poly1+a2 poly2+... +b is exactly poly.
  • The polynomial b has the property that none of its terms are divisible by leading terms of any of the polyi.
  • If the polyi form a Gröbner basis then this property uniquely determines the remainder obtained from PolynomialReduce.
