We present an approach of computing the intersection curve $\mathcal{C}$ of two rational parametric surface $\S_1(u,s)$ and $\S_2(v,t)$, one being projectable and hence can easily be implicitized. Plugging the parametric surface to the…
Solutions of an implicit ODE form a web. Already for cubic ODEs the 3-web of solutions has a nontrivial local invariant, namely the curvature form. Thus any local classification of implicit ODEs necessarily has functional moduli if no…
Tropical implicitization means computing the tropicalization of a unirational variety from its parametrization. In the case of a hypersurface, this amounts to finding the Newton polytope of the implicit equation, without computing its…
We consider polynomially and rationally parameterized curves, where the polynomials in the parameterization have fixed supports and generic coefficients. We apply sparse (or toric) elimination theory in order to determine the vertex…
We construct closed embedded minimal surfaces in the round three-sphere, resembling two parallel copies of the equatorial two-sphere, joined by small catenoidal bridges symmetrically arranged either along two parallel circles of the…
Most genuine multi-sided surface representations depend on a 2D domain that enables a mapping between local parameters and global coordinates. The shape of this domain ranges from regular polygons to curved configurations, but the simple…
The approach to curve implicitization through Sylvester and Bezout resultant matrices and bivariate interpolation in the usual power basis is extended to the case of Bernstein-Bezoutian matrices constructed when the polynomials are given in…
Overparameterized shallow neural networks admit substantial parameter redundancy: distinct parameter vectors may represent the same predictor due to hidden-unit permutations, rescalings, and related symmetries. As a result, geometric…
Soft interfaces can mediate interactions between particles bound to them. The force transmitted through the surface geometry on a particle may be expressed as a closed line integral of the surface stress tensor around that particle. This…
Given two closed curves in a surface, we propose an algorithm to detect whether they are of the same type or not.
This paper deals with a kind of design of a ruled surface. It combines concepts from the fields of computer aided geometric design and kinematics. A dual unit spherical B\'ezier-like curve on the dual unit sphere (DUS) is obtained with…
We present a matrix-based algorithm for deciding if the parametrization of a curve or a surface is invertible or not, and for computing the inverse of the parametrization if it exists.
Consider a rational family of planar rational curves in a certain region of interest. We are interested in finding an approximation to the implicit representation of the envelope. Since exact implicitization methods tend to be very costly,…
In this paper we define and construct a new class of algebraic surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space generated by a curve and a congruence of circles. We study their properties and visualize them with the program Mathematica.
The main goal of this paper is to give a general method to compute (via computer algebra systems) an explicit set of generators of the ideals of the projective embeddings of some ruled surfaces, namely projective line bundles over curves…
In this paper we propose a novel second-order accurate well balanced scheme for shallow water equations in general covariant coordinates over manifolds. In our approach, once the gravitational field is defined for the specific case, one…
Given the implicit equation $F(x,y,t,s)$ of a family of algebraic plane curves depending on the parameters $t,s$, we provide an algorithm for studying the topology types arising in the family. For this purpose, the algorithm computes a…
The squircle is an intermediate shape between the square and the circle. In this paper, we examine and discuss equations for different types of squircles. We then build upon these 2D shapes to come-up with various 3D surfaces based on…
We present new, practical algorithms for the hypersurface implicitization problem: namely, given a parametric description (in terms of polynomials or rational functions) of the hypersurface, find its implicit equation. Two of them are for…
We describe procedures for generating all 2-cell embedded simple graphs with up to a fixed number of vertices on a given surface. We also modify these procedures to generate closed 2-cell embeddings and polyhedral embeddings. We give…
