This paper is a natural continuation of Abbott et al. [Abbott, J., Bigatti, A., Kreuzer, M., Robbiano, L., 2000. Computing ideals of points. J. Symbolic Comput. 30, 341-356] further generalizing the Buchberger-Moller algorithm to zero-dimensional schemes in both affine and projective spaces. We also introduce a new, general way of viewing the problems which can be solved by the algorithm: an approach which looks to be readily applicable in several areas. Implementation issues are also addressed, especially for computations over Q where a trace-lifting paradigm is employed. We give a complexity analysis of the new algorithm for fat points in affine space over Q. Tables of timings show the new algorithm to be efficient in practice. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
