TEX ///
As we see in the example below, an irreducible characteristic series
for $I$ consists of a collection of triangular sets. Here,
given a polynomial $f$, write $lvar(f)$ for the
largest variable appearing in $f$ (with respect to the lexicographic order).
In the example, $lvar(-y w+x^2) = y$ . A triangular set consists
of polynomials $f_1,\dots,f_r$ such that $lvar(f_1)< \dots < lvar(f_r)$.
In the example, $lvar(-x*y^2+z^3) = x < w = lvar(-w*y+z^2)$ . If
$T_1,\dots,T_s$ form an irreducible characteristic series for $I$ , and if
$J_i$ is the ideal generated by the largest variables of the
elements of $T_i$ , then the algebraic set $V(I)$
defined by $I$ is the union of the sets $V(T_i) \setminus V(I_i)$, for $i=1,\dots,s$.
The minimal associated primes of $I$ can thus be recovered from the
irreducible characteristic series by saturation and by throwing away superfluous primes.
