This was a "demonstration problem" - my actual application will involve arbitrary-precision reals with lots of constraints. It appears that PPL not only supports rationals, but insists on them. It seems to set the base_ring to QQ, as the output from the following code is "Rational Field", but

Thanks for your answer. Though I have defined and now use such a function you suggested, but I need to calculate this function later for thousands of different inputs. This means a huge amount of computation that can be avoided, by once deriving an expression in terms of x[i]'s and then just r
