A perturbed differential resultant based implicitization algorithm for linear DPPEs

Let \bbK be an ordinary differential field with derivation $\partial$. Let \cP be a system of $n$ linear differential polynomial parametric equations in $n-1$ differential parameters with implicit ideal \id. Given a nonzero linear differential polynomial $A$ in \id we give necessary and sufficient conditions on $A$ for \cP to be $n-1$ dimensional. We prove the existence of a linear perturbation \cP_{\phi} of \cP so that the linear complete differential resultant \dcres_{\phi} associated to \cP_{\phi} is nonzero. A nonzero linear differential polynomial in \id is obtained from the lowest degree term of \dcres_{\phi} and used to provide an implicitization algorithm for \cP

Rational Hausdorff Divisors: a New approach to the Approximate Parametrization of Curves

In this paper we introduce the notion of rational Hausdorff divisor, we analyze the dimension and irreducibility of its associated linear system of curves, and we prove that all irreducible real curves belonging to the linear system are rational and are at finite Hausdorff distance among them. As a consequence, we provide a projective linear subspace where all (irreducible) elements are solutions to the approximate parametrization problem for a given algebraic plane curve. Furthermore, we identify the linear system with a plane curve that is shown to be rational and we develop algorithms to parametrize it analyzing its fields of parametrization. Therefore, we present a generic answer to the approximate parametrization problem. In addition, we introduce the notion of Hausdorff curve, and we prove that every irreducible Hausdorff curve can always be parametrized with a generic rational parametrization having coefficients depending on as many parameters as the degree of the input curve
