You are definitely right. The problem lies (as far as I can see) in
sage.schemes.generic in the __init__ funtion of class
SchemeMorphism_on_points_projective_space. (I only found this out by
tring to construct a morphism from P^1 to P^1 using 3 polynomials,
which did raise an error in this very function.)
It appears that the only check this function does is that the number
of polys is correct. It does not check that they are actually polys,
or have the right number of variables, let alone that they are coprime
and homogeneous of the same degree:
sage: S.<u,v,w> = QQ[]
sage: f = H([u,v])
sage: f = H([u*v*w,u+v+w])
sage: f = H([exp(u),exp(v)])
sage: f
Scheme endomorphism of Projective Space of dimension 1 over Rational Field
Defn: Defined on coordinates by sending (x : y) to
(e^u : e^v)
with H as in your example.
This definitely deserves a ticket, which I will create. now.
