We unveil in concrete terms the general machinery of the syzygy-based algorithms for the implicitization of rational surfaces in terms of the monomials in the polynomials defining the parametrization, following and expanding our joint…

In this paper we give different compactifications for the domain and the codomain of an affine rational map $f$ which parametrizes a hypersurface. We show that the closure of the image of this map (with possibly some other extra…

In this paper we describe an algorithm for implicitizing rational hypersurfaces in case there exists at most a finite number of base points. It is based on a technique exposed in math.AG/0210096, where implicit equations are obtained as…

In this article we analyze the implicitization problem of the image of a rational map $\phi: X --> P^n$, with $T$ a toric variety of dimension $n-1$ defined by its Cox ring $R$. Let $I:=(f_0,...,f_n)$ be $n+1$ homogeneous elements of $R$.…

We develop in this paper some methods for studying the implicitization problem for a rational map $\phi: \mathbb{P}^n \to (\mathbb{P}^1)^{n+1}$ defining a hypersurface in $(\mathbb{P}^1)^{n+1}$, based on computing the determinant of a…

One introduces a class of projective parameterizations that resemble generalized de Jonqui\`eres maps. Any such parametrization defines a birational map $\mathfrak{F}$ of $\pp^n$ onto a hypersurface $V(F)\subset \pp^{n+1}$ with a strong…

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…

A parameterized surface can be represented as a projection from a certain toric surface. This generalizes the classical homogeneous and bihomogeneous parameterizations. We extend to the toric case two methods for computing the implicit…

In this paper, we investigate some topics around the closed image $S$ of a rational map $\lambda$ given by some homogeneous elements $f_1,...,f_n$ of the same degree in a graded algebra $A$. We first compute the degree of this closed image…

Let X be a compact (resp. compact and nonsingular) real algebraic variety and let Y be a homogeneous space for some linear real algebraic group. We prove that a continuous (resp. C^infinity) map f:X-->Y can be approximated by regular maps…

Let w: Map(X,Y;f) -> Y denote a general evaluation fibration. Working in the setting of rational homotopy theory via differential graded Lie algebras, we identify the long exact sequence induced on rational homotopy groups by w in terms of…

In this article we extend a previous definition of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity for modules over an algebra graded by a finitely generated abelian group. Our notion of regularity is based on Maclagan and Smith's definition, and is…

A new approach is established to computing the image of a rational map, whereby the use of approximation complexes is complemented with a detailed analysis of the torsion of the symmetric algebra in certain degrees. In the case the map is…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be finite complexes. When $Y$ is a nilpotent space, it has a rationalization $Y \to Y_{(0)}$ which is well-understood. Early on it was found that the induced map $[X,Y] \to [X,Y_{(0)}]$ on sets of mapping classes is…

In this paper we consider a family of algorithms for approximate implicitization of rational parametric curves and surfaces. The main approximation tool in all of the approaches is the singular value decomposition, and they are therefore…

Let $U\subseteq H^0(\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1}(a,b))$ be a four-dimensional vector space and consider the rational map $\phi_U:\,\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1 \dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}^3$ defined by its basis of…

In this paper we study MapReduce computations from a complexity-theoretic perspective. First, we formulate a uniform version of the MRC model of Karloff et al. (2010). We then show that the class of regular languages, and moreover all of…

Let X be a complex algebraic manifold of dimension n+1 embedded in a sufficiently higher dimensional complex projective space, and Y a generic hyperplane section of X. We describe the mixed Hodge structure on H^p(X-Y,C) and the Hodge…

We develop a multigraded variant of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity. Motivated by toric geometry, we work with modules over a polynomial ring graded by a finitely generated abelian group. As in the standard graded case, our definition of…

In this paper, we focus on computing the kernel of a map of polynomial rings $\varphi$. This core problem in symbolic computation is known as implicitization. While there are extremely effective Gr\"obner basis methods used to solve this…
