Root Isolation of Zero-dimensional Polynomial Systems with Linear Univariate Representation

In this paper, a linear univariate representation for the roots of a zero-dimensional polynomial equation system is presented, where the roots of the equation system are represented as linear combinations of roots of several univariate polynomial equations. The main advantage of this representation is that the precision of the roots can be easily controlled. In fact, based on the linear univariate representation, we can give the exact precisions needed for roots of the univariate equations in order to obtain the roots of the equation system to a given precision. As a consequence, a root isolation algorithm for a zero-dimensional polynomial equation system can be easily derived from its linear univariate representation.Comment: 19 pages,2 figures; MM-Preprint of KLMM, Vol. 29, 92-111, Aug. 201

A Generic Position Based Method for Real Root Isolation of Zero-Dimensional Polynomial Systems

We improve the local generic position method for isolating the real roots of a zero-dimensional bivariate polynomial system with two polynomials and extend the method to general zero-dimensional polynomial systems. The method mainly involves resultant computation and real root isolation of univariate polynomial equations. The roots of the system have a linear univariate representation. The complexity of the method is $\tilde{O}_B(N^{10})$ for the bivariate case, where $N=\max(d,\tau)$, $d$ resp., $\tau$ is an upper bound on the degree, resp., the maximal coefficient bitsize of the input polynomials. The algorithm is certified with probability 1 in the multivariate case. The implementation shows that the method is efficient, especially for bivariate polynomial systems.Comment: 24 pages, 5 figure

On the Complexity of Solving Zero-Dimensional Polynomial Systems via Projection

Given a zero-dimensional polynomial system consisting of n integer polynomials in n variables, we propose a certified and complete method to compute all complex solutions of the system as well as a corresponding separating linear form l with coefficients of small bit size. For computing l, we need to project the solutions into one dimension along O(n) distinct directions but no further algebraic manipulations. The solutions are then directly reconstructed from the considered projections. The first step is deterministic, whereas the second step uses randomization, thus being Las-Vegas. The theoretical analysis of our approach shows that the overall cost for the two problems considered above is dominated by the cost of carrying out the projections. We also give bounds on the bit complexity of our algorithms that are exclusively stated in terms of the number of variables, the total degree and the bitsize of the input polynomials

Decidability of Univariate Real Algebra with Predicates for Rational and Integer Powers

We prove decidability of univariate real algebra extended with predicates for rational and integer powers, i.e., $(x^n \in \mathbb{Q})$ and $(x^n \in \mathbb{Z})$. Our decision procedure combines computation over real algebraic cells with the rational root theorem and witness construction via algebraic number density arguments.Comment: To appear in CADE-25: 25th International Conference on Automated Deduction, 2015.

Improved algorithm for computing separating linear forms for bivariate systems

We address the problem of computing a linear separating form of a system of two bivariate polynomials with integer coefficients, that is a linear combination of the variables that takes different values when evaluated at the distinct solutions of the system. The computation of such linear forms is at the core of most algorithms that solve algebraic systems by computing rational parameterizations of the solutions and this is the bottleneck of these algorithms in terms of worst-case bit complexity. We present for this problem a new algorithm of worst-case bit complexity \sOB(d^7+d^6\tau) where $d$ and $\tau$ denote respectively the maximum degree and bitsize of the input (and where \sO refers to the complexity where polylogarithmic factors are omitted and $O_B$ refers to the bit complexity). This algorithm simplifies and decreases by a factor $d$ the worst-case bit complexity presented for this problem by Bouzidi et al. \cite{bouzidiJSC2014a}. This algorithm also yields, for this problem, a probabilistic Las-Vegas algorithm of expected bit complexity \sOB(d^5+d^4\tau).Comment: ISSAC - 39th International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation (2014
