The subject of this book is the solution of polynomial equations, that is, s- tems of (generally) non-linear algebraic equations. This study is at the heart of several areas of mathematics and its applications. It has provided the - tivation for advances in di?erent branches of mathematics such as algebra, geometry, topology, and numerical analysis. In recent years, an explosive - velopment of algorithms and software has made it possible to solve many problems which had been intractable up to then and greatly expanded the areas of applications to include robotics, machine vision, signal processing, structural molecular biology, computer-aided design and geometric modelling, as well as certain areas of statistics, optimization and game theory, and b- logical networks. At the same time, symbolic computation has proved to be an invaluable tool for experimentation and conjecture in pure mathematics. As a consequence, the interest in e?ective algebraic geometry and computer algebrahasextendedwellbeyonditsoriginalconstituencyofpureandapplied mathematicians and computer scientists, to encompass many other scientists and engineers. While the core of the subject remains algebraic geometry, it also calls upon many other aspects of mathematics and theoretical computer science, ranging from numerical methods, di?erential equations and number theory to discrete geometry, combinatorics and complexity theory.

The book is devoted to algorithmic low-dimensional topology. This branch of mathematics has recently been undergoing an intense development. On the one hand, the exponential advancement of computer technologies has made it possible to conduct sophisticated computer experiments and to implement algorithmic solutions, which have in turn provided a motivation to search for new and better algorithms. On the other hand, low-dimensional topology has received an additional boost because of the discovery of numerous connections with theoretical physics. There is also another deep reason why algorithmic topology has received a lot of attention. It is that a search for algorithmic solutions generally proves to be a rich source of well-stated mathematical problems. Speaking out of my experience, it seems that an orientation towards "e;how to"e; rather than just "e;how is"e; serves as a probing stone for choosing among possible directions of research - much like problems in mechanics led once to the development of calculus.
The algorithmic problems of real algebraic geometry such as real root counting, deciding the existence of solutions of systems of polynomial equations and inequalities, or deciding whether two points belong in the same connected component of a semi-algebraic set occur in many contexts. In this first-ever graduate textbook on the algorithmic aspects of real algebraic geometry, the main ideas and techniques presented form a coherent and rich body of knowledge, linked to many areas of mathematics and computing.Mathematicians already aware of real algebraic geometry will find relevant information about the algorithmic aspects, and researchers in computer science and engineering will find the required mathematical background.Being self-contained the book is accessible to graduate students and even, for invaluable parts of it, to undergraduate students.
This edited volume presents a fascinating collection of lecture notes focusing on differential equations from two viewpoints: formal calculus (through the theory of Groebner bases) and geometry (via quiver theory).

Ergodic theory is hard to study because it is based on measure theory, which is a technically difficult subject to master for ordinary students, especially for physics majors. One last remark: The last chapter explains the relation between entropy and data compression, which belongs to information theory and not to ergodic theory.
Triangulations presents the first comprehensive treatment of the theory of secondary polytopes and related topics. The text discusses the geometric structure behind the algorithms and shows new emerging applications, including hundreds of illustrations, examples, and exercises.
Traditionally a subject of number theory, continued fractions appear in dynamical systems, algebraic geometry, topology, and even celestial mechanics.
This is the third edition of the classic textbook on the subject. With its clear writing, strong organization, and comprehensive coverage of essential theory it is like a personal guide through this important topic, and now has lots of extra material.
The book deals with algorithmic problems related to binary quadratic forms. It uniquely focuses on the algorithmic aspects of the theory. The book introduces the reader to important areas of number theory such as diophantine equations, reduction theory of quadratic forms, geometry of numbers and algebraic number theory.
This is a thorough and comprehensive treatment of the theory of NP-completeness in the framework of algebraic complexity theory. Coverage includes Valiant's algebraic theory of NP-completeness; interrelations with the classical theory as well as the Blum-Shub-Smale model of computation, questions of structural complexity;
Combinatorial algebraic topology is a fascinating and dynamic field at the crossroads of algebraic topology and discrete mathematics. This volume is the first comprehensive treatment of the subject in book form.
A number of original research results are contained in the book, and many open problems are raised for future research in this rapidly growing area of computational mathematics.
A new starting-point and a new method are requisite, to insure a complete [classi?cation of the Steiner triple systems of order 15].
Accessible to anyone with a good general background in mathematics, but it nonetheless gets right to the cutting edge of active research. Some results appear here for the first time, while others have hitherto only been given in preprints.
Among all computer-generated mathematical images, Julia sets of rational maps occupy one of the most prominent positions. This accessible book summarizes the present knowledge about the computational properties of Julia sets in a self-contained way.
This acclaimed book examines the topic of symbolic integration in comprehensive detail, incorporating new results along the way. The second edition offers a new chapter on parallel integration, and a number of other improvements including additional exercises.
This is the first graduate textbook on the algorithmic aspects of real algebraic geometry. The main ideas and techniques presented form a coherent and rich body of knowledge. Mathematicians will find relevant information about the algorithmic aspects.
This text offers an introduction to error-correcting linear codes. The book differs from other standard texts in its emphasis on the classification of codes by means of isometry classes. The book is based on the successful German edition.
This book provides a quick access to computational tools for algebraic geometry, the mathematical discipline which handles solution sets of polynomial equations.
The book provides a self-contained account of the formal theory of general, i.e. also under- and overdetermined, systems of differential equations which in its central notion of involution combines geometric, algebraic, homological and combinatorial ideas.
One of the most remarkable theorems in coding theory is Gleason's 1970 theorem about the weight enumerators of self-dual codes and their connections with invariant theory. This book develops a new theory which is powerful enough to include all the earlier generalizations. It is also in part an extensive encyclopedia listing the different types of self-dual codes and their properties.
From the reviews: "This is a textbook in cryptography with emphasis on algebraic methods. It is supported by many exercises (with answers) making it appropriate for a course in mathematics or computer science. Mathematical Reviews
This comprehensive book covers both long-standing results in the theory of polynomials and recent developments. After initial chapters on the location and separation of roots and on irreducibility criteria, the book covers more specialized polynomials.
This book is divided into two parts, one theoretical and one focusing on applications, and offers a complete description of the Canonical Groebner Cover, the most accurate algebraic method for discussing parametric polynomial systems.
