For a polyhedral subdivision Δ of a region in Euclideand-space, we consider the vector spaceC
k
r
(Δ) consisting of allC
r
piecewise polynomial functions over Δ of degree at mostk. We consider the formal power series ∑
k≥0
dimℝ C
k
r
(Δ)λk and show, under mild conditions on Δ, that this always has the formP(λ)/(1−λ)
d+1, whereP(λ) is a polynomial in λ with integral coefficients which satisfiesP(0)=1,P(1)=f
d (Δ), andP′(1)=(r+1)f
d−1
0
(Δ). We discuss how the polynomialP(λ) and bases for the spacesC
k
r
(Δ) can be effectively calculated by use of Grbner basis techniques of computational commutative algebra. A further application
is given to the theory of hyperplane arrangements. |
