Dear William,

it seems that I am quite difficult to understand. I hope I can clarify some
things. The package works now, as I said already in my previous mail, I only
dislike one thing about it, but obviously, I couldn't make it clear. The
package is attached below.

> Speaking for myself, I won't use the expanded series as input from a user. 

I don't do that either, nor would I suggest it.

TRANFUN serves as an example, as I stated, I think.

Replace Aldor with SPAD if you like. But it seems to me that there is more hope
to make things "generic" in Aldor...

No, I didn't omit anything I need. Even if R = UTS(FRAC INT, x, 0), i.e., R has
TRANFUN, I don't want to teach SUPEXPR to do something with sin(1+?*x). I guess
you meant 1+?*x would be in SUPEXPR R. Obviously, 1+?*x is not in R, thus
SUPEXPR *should* throw an error.

No. As long as F is "large" enough, it just works.

Yes.

I don't understand. Nowhere I suggested to deal with expressions involving
power series - assuming that, with "expressions" you refer to something like
EXPR. So far I only considered maps from UTS -> UTS and, somewhat
alternatively, elements of a FunctionSpace that I interpret as maps UTS -> UTS.

>              SUP(F) ---> UTS(SUP(F),x,a)

In this picture, I guess that elements f of F are really implicit equations
defining y(x) which get mapped to the power series expansion of the function
y(x)?

\section{domain SUPEXPR SparseUnivariatePolynomialExpressions}

This domain is a hack, in some sense. What I'd really like to do -
automatically - is to provide all operations supported by the coefficient
domain, as long as the polynomials can be retracted to that domain, i.e., as
long as they are just constants. I don't see another way to do this,
unfortunately.

\section{package UTSSOL TaylorSolve}

[[UTSSOL]] is a facility to compute the first few coefficients of a Taylor
series given only implicitely by a function [[f]] that vanishes when applied to
the Taylor series.

It uses the method of undetermined coefficients.

\begin{ToDo}
  Could I either
  \begin{itemize}
  \item take a function [[UTSCAT F -> UTSCAT F]] and still be able to compute
    with undetermined coefficients, or
  \item take a function [[F -> F]], and do likewise?
  \end{itemize}

  Let's see.

  Try to compute the equation without resorting to power series. I.e., %
  [[c: SUP SUP F]], and [[f: SUP SUP F -> SUP SUP F]]. Won't this make the
  computation of coefficients terribly slow?

  I could also try to replace transcendental kernels with variables\dots

  Unfortunately, [[SUP F]] does not have [[TRANFUN]] -- well, it can't, of
  course. However, I'd like to be able to compute %
  [[sin(1+monomial(1,1)$UFPS SUP EXPR INT)]].

@

one which is so far undetermined.

Consider an arbitrary equation $f\big(x, y(x)\big)=0$. When setting $x=0$, we
obtain $f\big(0, y(0)\big)=0$. It is not necessarily the case that this
determines $y(0)$ uniquely, so we need one initial value that satisfies this
equation.
\begin{ToDo}
  [[ssolve]] should check that the given initial values satisfy $f\big(0, y(0),
  y'(0),...\big) = 0$.
\end{ToDo}
Now consider the derivatives of $f$, where we write $y$ instead of $y(x)$ for
better readability:
\begin{equation*}
\frac{d}{dx}f(x, y)=f_1(x, y) + f_2(x, y)y^\prime
\end{equation*}
and
\begin{align*}
 \frac{d^2}{dx^2}f(x, y)&=f_{1,1}(x, y)\\
                        &+f_{1,2}(x, y)y^\prime\\
                        &+f_{2,1}(x, y)y^\prime\\
                        &+f_{2,2}(x, y)(y^\prime)^2\\
                        &+f_2(x, y)y^{\prime\prime}.
\end{align*}
In general, $\frac{d^2}{dx^2}f(x, y)$ depends only linearly on
$y^{\prime\prime}$.

\begin{ToDo}
  This points to another possibility: Since we know that we only need to solve
  linear equations, we could compute two values and then use interpolation.
  This might be a bit slower, but more importantly: can we still check that we
  have enough initial values? Furthermore, we then really need that $f$ is
  analytic, i.e., operators are not necessarily allowed anymore. However, it
  seems that composition is allowed.
\end{ToDo}

Otherwise, we have to find the first non-satisfied relation and solve it. It

The general method is to transform the given expression into a form which can
then be compiled. There is currently no other way in Axiom to transform an
expression into a function.

We need to replace the differentiation operator by the corresponding function
in the power series category, and make composition explicit. Furthermore, we
need to replace the variable by the corresponding variable in the power series.
It turns out that the compiler doesn't find the right definition of
[[monomial(1,1)]]. Thus we introduce it as a second argument. In fact, maybe
that's even cleaner. Also, we need to tell the compiler that kernels that are
independent of the main variable should be coerced to elements of the
coefficient ring, since he will complain otherwise.
