(** A library of positive multivariate polynomials *)
(** * Representation of polynomials:  - [pow] is the type of a variable identifier and its exponent.  - [mon] is the type of a monomial, consisting of a coefficient and a list of variable identifiers with their exponents.  - [pol] is the type of a polynomial, consisting of the number of variables and a list of monomials. *)
Definition pow : Type := (nat*nat)%type.
Definition mon : Type := (nat * list pow)%type.
Definition pol : Type := (nat * list mon)%type.
(** * Evaluation of polynomials  - [peval p [v0, v1,...]] is the evaluation of the polynomial [p] with variables [0], [1]... respectively instantiated with the values [v0], [v1]... If a variable is not assigned a value, then it is assumed to be [0]. Values that do not correspond to a variable are ignored. *)
