Definition

The process of reducing a polynomial modulo a chosen basis (for example a Gröbner basis or a border basis) to a canonical representative in the quotient algebra R/I, producing a normal (or remainder) form that is unique relative to the chosen basis and term order and useful for ideal membership, equality testing, and quotient algebra computations.
