Abstract
We describe a recently revived version of the software package
SubalgebraBases,
which is distributed in the
Macaulay2 computer algebra system. The package allows
the user to compute and manipulate subalgebra bases — which are also known as
SAGBI bases, or canonical bases, and form a special class of Khovanskii bases — for
polynomial rings and their quotients. We provide an overview of the design and
functionality of the
SubalgebraBases package and demonstrate how the package
works on several motivating examples.
