13 Library and I/O
  
  
  13.1 Simplicial complex library
  
  simpcomp contains a library of simplicial complexes on few vertices, most of
  them  (combinatorial)  triangulations  of manifolds and pseudomanifolds. The
  user  can load these known triangulations from the library in order to study
  their  properties  or to construct new triangulations out of the known ones.
  For  example,  a  user  could  determine  the  topological  type  of a given
  triangulation  --  which  can  be  quite  tedious  if  done  by  hand  -- by
  establishing a PL equivalence to a complex in the library.
  
  Among  other  known  triangulations,  the library contains all of the vertex
  transitive  triangulations of combinatorial manifolds with up to 15 vertices
  (for  d  ∈  { 2,3,9,10,11,12}) and up to 13 vertices (for d ∈ { 4,5,6,7,8 })
  and all of the vertex transitive combinatorial pseudomanifolds with up to 15
  vertices (for d=3) and up to 13 vertices (for d ∈ { 4,5,6,7 }) classified by
  Frank    Lutz    that    can    be    found   on   his   ``Manifold   Page''
  http://www.math.tu-berlin.de/diskregeom/stellar/,     along     with    some
  triangulations of sphere bundles and some bounded triangulated PL-manifolds.
  
  See  SCLib  (13.1-2)  for a naming convention used for the global library of
  simpcomp.  Note: Another way of storing and loading complexes is provided by
  the   functions   SCExportIsoSig   (6.2-2),   SCExportToString  (6.2-1)  and
  SCFromIsoSig (6.2-3), see Section 6.2 for details.
  
  13.1-1 SCIsLibRepository
  
  SCIsLibRepository( object )  filter
  Returns:  true or false upon success, fail otherwise.
  
  Filter  for  the  category of a library repository SCIsLibRepository used by
  the  simpcomp  library.  The  category  SCLibRepository  is derived from the
  category SCPropertyObject.
  
    Example  
     gap> SCIsLibRepository(SCLib); #the global library is stored in SCLib
     true
     
  
  
  13.1-2 SCLib
  
  SCLib global variable
  
  The  global variable SCLib contains the library object of the global library
  of  simpcomp  through which the user can access the library. The path to the
  global library is GAPROOT/pkg/simpcomp/complexes.
  
  The  naming convention in the global library is the following: complexes are
  usually named by their topological type. As usual, `S^d' denotes a d-sphere,
  `T'  a torus, `x' the cartesian product, `~' the twisted product and `#' the
  connected sum. The Klein Bottle is denoted by `K' or `K^2'.

  SCLibAdd( repository, complex[, name] )  function
  Returns:  true upon success, fail otherwise.
  
  Adds  a given simplicial complex complex to a given repository repository of
  type  SCIsLibRepository.  complex  is saved to a file with suffix .sc in the
  repositories  base  path,  where  the  file  name  is either formed from the
  optional  argument  name  and the current time or taken from the name of the
  complex, if it is named.

            otherwise.
  
  Returns a list with entries of the form [ ID, NAME ] of all the complexes in
  the given repository repository of type SCIsLibRepository.
  
    Example

  13.1-5 SCLibDelete
  
  SCLibDelete( repository, id )  function
  Returns:  true upon success, fail otherwise.
  
  Deletes  the  simplicial  complex  with  the  given  id  id  from  the given
  repository  repository.  Apart from deleting the complexes' index entry, the
  associated .sc file is also deleted.
  
    Example

  13.1-6 SCLibDetermineTopologicalType
  
  SCLibDetermineTopologicalType( [repository, ]complex )  function
  Returns:  simplicial  complex  of  type  SCSimplicialComplex  or  a  list of
            integers upon success, fail otherwise.
  
  Tries  to determine the topological type of a given complex complex by first
  looking  for  complexes  with  matching  homology  in the library repository
  repository (if no repository is passed, the global repository SCLib is used)
  and  either  returns  a  simplicial  complex object (that is combinatorially
  isomorphic  to  the  complex given) or a list of library ids of complexes in
  the library with the same homology as the complex provided.
  
  The  ids  obtained in this way can then be used to compare the corresponding
  complexes with complex via the function SCEquivalent (9.2-2).
  
  If  complex  is a combinatorial manifold of dimension 1 or 2 its topological
  type  is  computed,  stored  to  the property TopologicalType and complex is
  returned.
  
  If  no  complexes  with  matching  homology  can  be found, the empty set is
  returned.
  
    Example  
     gap> c:=SCFromFacets([[1,2,3],[1,2,6],[1,3,5],[1,4,5],[1,4,6],
                           [2,3,4],[2,4,5],[2,5,6],[3,4,6],[3,5,6]]);;

  13.1-7 SCLibFlush
  
  SCLibFlush( repository, confirm )  function
  Returns:  true upon success, fail otherwise.
  
  Completely  empties  a  given  repository  repository.  The  index  and  all
  simplicial  complexes  in  this repository are deleted. The second argument,
  confirm, must be the string "yes" in order to confirm the deletion.
  
    Example  
     gap> myRepository:=SCLibInit("/tmp/repository");;
     gap> SCLibFlush(myRepository,"yes");
     #I  SCLibInit: invalid parameters.
     true
     
  
  
  13.1-8 SCLibInit
  
  SCLibInit( dir )  function
  Returns:  library  repository  of  type  SCLibRepository  upon success, fail
            otherwise.
  
  This  function  initializes  a  library  repository  object  for  the  given
  directory  dir  (which  has  to  be provided in form of a GAP object of type
  String  or  Directory) and returns that library repository object in case of
  success.  The  returned  object  then  provides a mean to access the library
  repository via the SCLib-functions of simpcomp.
  
  The global library repository of simpcomp is loaded automatically at startup
  and  is  stored  in  the variable SCLib. User repositories can be created by
  calling  SCLibInit  with  a  desired  destination  directory. Note that each
  repository  must  reside  in  a  different path since otherwise data may get
  lost.
  
  The  function  first  tries  to  load  the  repository  index  for the given
  directory to rebuild it (by calling SCLibUpdate) if loading the index fails.
  The  library index of a library repository is stored in its base path in the
  XML  file  complexes.idx, the complexes are stored in files with suffix .sc,
  also in XML format.
  
    Example  
     gap> myRepository:=SCLibInit("/tmp/repository");
     #I  SCLibInit: made directory "/tmp/repository/" for user library.
     #I  SCIntFunc.SCLibInit: index not found -- trying to reconstruct it.
     #I  SCLibUpdate: rebuilding index for /tmp/repository/.
     #I  SCLibUpdate: rebuilding index done.

  13.1-9 SCLibIsLoaded
  
  SCLibIsLoaded( repository )  function
  Returns:  true or false upon succes, fail otherwise.
  
  Returns  true when a given library repository repository is in loaded state.
  This  means  that  the  directory  of  this  repository  is accessible and a
  repository  index file for this repository exists in the repositories' path.
  If this is not the case false is returned.

     true
     
  
  
  13.1-10 SCLibSearchByAttribute
  
  SCLibSearchByAttribute( repository, expr )  function
  Returns:  A list of items of the form [ integer, string ] upon success, fail
            otherwise.
  
  Searches  a  given repository repository for complexes for which the boolean
  expression  expr,  passed as string, evaluates to true and returns a list of
  complexes  with  entries  of  the  form  [ID,  NAME] or fail upon error. The
  expression  may  use  all  GAP  functions  and  can  access  all the indexed
  attributes  of  the  complexes  in  the  given repository for the query. The
  standard  attributes  are:  Dim  (Dimension),  F (f-vector), G (g-vector), H
  (h-vector),  Chi  (Euler  characteristic), Homology, Name, IsPM, IsManifold.
  See  SCLib  for  the  set  of  indexed  attributes  of the global library of
  simpcomp.
  
    Example  
     gap> SCLibSearchByAttribute(SCLib,"Dim=4 and F[3]=Binomial(F[1],3)");
     [ [ 16, "CP^2 (VT)" ], [ 7648, "K3_16" ] ]

  13.1-11 SCLibSearchByName
  
  SCLibSearchByName( repository, name )  function
  Returns:  A list of items of the form [ integer, string ] upon success, fail
            otherwise.
  
  Searches a given repository repository for complexes that contain the string
  name  as  a  substring  of  their  name  attribute and returns a list of the
  complexes  found with entries of the form [ID, NAME]. See SCLib (13.1-2) for
  a naming convention used for the global library of simpcomp.
  
    Example  
     gap> SCLibSearchByName(SCLib,"K3");
     [ [ 7648, "K3_16" ], [ 7649, "K3_17" ] ]
     gap> SCLib.SearchByName("K3"); #alternative syntax
     [ [ 7648, "K3_16" ], [ 7649, "K3_17" ] ]
     gap> SCLib.SearchByName("S^4x"); #search for products with S^4

  13.1-12 SCLibSize
  
  SCLibSize( repository )  function
  Returns:  integer upon success, fail otherwise.
  
  Returns   the   number  of  complexes  contained  in  the  given  repository
  repository.  Fails  if the library repository was not previously loaded with
  SCLibInit.
  
    Example  
     gap> SCLibSize(SCLib); #SCLib is the repository of the global library
     7649
     
  
  
  13.1-13 SCLibUpdate
  
  SCLibUpdate( repository[, recalc] )  function
  Returns:  library  repository  of  type  SCLibRepository  upon success, fail
            otherwise.
  
  Recreates the index of a given repository (either via a repository object or
  a  base  path  of a repository repository) by scanning the base path for all
  .sc  files  containing  simplicial  complexes  of  the repository. Returns a
  repository object with the newly created index on success or fail in case of
  an  error. The optional boolean argument recalc forces simpcomp to recompute
  all  the  indexed  properties  (such  as  f-vector,  homology,  etc.) of the
  simplicial complexes in the repository if set to true.
  
    Example  
     gap> myRepository:=SCLibInit("/tmp/repository");;
     gap> SCLibUpdate(myRepository);
     #I  SCLibUpdate: rebuilding index for /tmp/repository/.
     #I  SCLibUpdate: rebuilding index done.

  13.2-5 SCExportMacaulay2
  
  SCExportMacaulay2( complex, ring, filename[, alphalabels] )  function
  Returns:  true upon success, fail otherwise.
  
  Exports  the  facet  list of a given simplicial complex complex in Macaulay2
  format  to a file specified by filename. The argument ring can either be the
  ring of integers (specified by Integers) or the ring of rationals (sepcified
  by  Rationals). The optional boolean argument alphalabels labels the complex
  with  characters  from a, dots ,z in the exported file if a value of true is
  supplied,  while  the  standard  labeling  of the vertices is v_1, dots ,v_n
  where  n  is  the number of vertices of complex. If complex has more than 26
  vertices, the argument alphalabels is ignored.
  
    Example  
     gap> c:=SCBdCrossPolytope(4);;
     gap> SCExportMacaulay2(c,Integers,"/tmp/bdbeta4.m2");
     true
     
  
  
  13.2-6 SCExportPolymake
  
  SCExportPolymake( complex, filename )  function
  Returns:  true upon success, fail otherwise.
  
  Exports  the  facet  list  with  vertex labels of a given simplicial complex
  complex  in polymake format to a file specified by filename. Currently, only
  the export in the format of polymake version 2.3 is supported.
  
    Example  
     gap> c:=SCBdCrossPolytope(4);;
     gap> SCExportPolymake(c,"/tmp/bdbeta4.poly");
     true
     
  
  
  13.2-7 SCImportPolymake
  
  SCImportPolymake( filename )  function
  Returns:  simplicial  complex of type SCSimplicialComplex upon success, fail
            otherwise.
  
  Imports  the  facet  list  of  a  topaz  polymake file specified by filename
  (discarding  any vertex labels) and creates a simplicial complex object from
  these facets.
  
    Example  
     gap> c:=SCBdCrossPolytope(4);;
     gap> SCExportPolymake(c,"/tmp/bdbeta4.poly");
     true
     gap> d:=SCImportPolymake("/tmp/bdbeta4.poly");

  13.2-8 SCExportLatexTable
  
  SCExportLatexTable( complex, filename, itemsperline )  function
  Returns:  true on success, fail otherwise.
  
  Exports  the  facet  list of a given simplicial complex complex (or any list
  given  as  first  argument)  in form of a LaTeX table to a file specified by
  filename.  The argument itemsperline specifies how many columns the exported
  table should have. The faces are exported in the format ⟨ v_1,dots,v_k ⟩.
  
    Example  
     gap> c:=SCBdSimplex(5);;
     gap> SCExportLatexTable(c,"/tmp/bd5simplex.tex",5);
     true
     
  
  
  13.2-9 SCExportJavaView
  
  SCExportJavaView( complex, file, coords )  function
  Returns:  true on success, fail otherwise.
  
  Exports  the  2-skeleton  of  the  given  simplicial complex complex (or the
  facets  if  the  complex is of dimension 2 or less) in JavaView format (file
  name  suffix  .jvx)  to  a  file specified by filename (as string). The list
  coords  must  contain  a  3-tuple  of  real  coordinates  for each vertex of
  complex,  either  as  tuple  of  length  three  containing  the  coordinates
  (Warning:  as  GAP  only  has rudimentary support for floating point values,
  currently  only  integer  numbers  can be used as coordinates when providing
  coords  as  list  of  3-tuples)  or as string of the form "x.x y.y z.z" with
  decimal  numbers  x.x,  y.y,  z.z  for  the three coordinates (i.e. "1.0 0.0
  0.0").
  
    Example  
     gap> coords:=[[1,0,0],[0,1,0],[0,0,1]];;
     gap> SCExportJavaView(SCBdSimplex(2),"/tmp/triangle.jvx",coords);

  13.2-10 SCExportPolymake
  
  SCExportPolymake( complex, filename )  function
  Returns:  true upon success, fail otherwise.
  
  Exports  the  gluings  of the tetrahedra of a given combinatorial 3-manifold
  complex   in   a   format  compatible  with  Matveev's  3-manifold  software
  Recognizer.
  
    Example  
     gap> c:=SCBdCrossPolytope(4);;
     gap> SCExportRecognizer(c,"/tmp/bdbeta4.mv");
