R0047-24493 · q-20261015-advance-20261113-r06-gradient-vector-0018 ## Original question and givens Use dimension=3, raw polynomial terms=[[18, [2, 1, 0]], [19, [0, 1, 1]], [1, [0, 0, 0]]], each [rational coefficient,ordered exponent vector]. Coefficients may be integers or [numerator,denominator]. Exponent/point arities equal the dimension. Combine equal monomials and remove zero coefficients before the canonical symbolic output. Coordinate order and the standard Euclidean basis/metric are fixed. Give (dimension, canonical_terms, coordinate_derivative_polynomials, certificate). - G001 — Use dimension=3, raw polynomial terms=[[18, [2, 1, 0]], [19, [0, 1, 1]], [1, [0, 0, 0]]], each [rational coefficient,ordered exponent vector].
