Abstract: Physical objects and constraints may be modeled by polynomial equations and inequalities. For this reason algebraic geometry, the study of solutions to systems of polynomial equations, is a tool for scientists and engineers. Moreover, relations between concepts arising in science and engineering are often described by polynomials. Whatever their source, once polynomials enter the picture, notions from algebraic geometry—its theoretical base, trove of classical examples, and modern computational tools—may all be brought to bear on the problem at hand. As a part of applied mathematics, algebraic geometry has two faces. One is an expanding list of recurring techniques and examples which are common to many applications, and the other consists of topics from the applied sciences which involve polynomials. Linking these two aspects are algorithms and software for algebraic geometry.

TL;DR: In the Groebner package, the most commonly used commands are NormalForm, for doing the division algorithm, and Basis, for computing a Groebners basis as mentioned in this paper. But these commands require a large number of variables.
