Brackets and Projective Geometry in Macaulay2
Abstract
We introduce the Brackets package for the computer algebra system Macaulay2, which provides convenient syntax for computations involving the classical invariants of the special linear group. We describe our implementation of bracket rings and Grassmann-Cayley algebras, and illustrate basic functionality such as the straightening algorithm on examples from projective and enumerative geometry.
