A method is presented for computing all the affine equivalences between two rational ruled surfaces defined by rational parametrizations that works directly in parametric rational form, i.e. without computing or making use of the implicit…
This paper is devoted to the investigation of selected situations when the computation of projective (and other) equivalences of algebraic varieties can be efficiently solved with the help of finding projective equivalences of finite sets…
Let $S$ be a rational projective surface given by means of a projective rational parametrization whose base locus satisfies a mild assumption. In this paper we present an algorithm that provides three rational maps $f,g,h:\mathbb{A}^2 --\to…

We prove that any smooth rational projective surface over the field of complex numbers has an open covering consisting of 3 subsets isomorphic to affine planes.
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…

It is well-known that a Severi-Brauer surface has a rational point if and only if it is isomorphic to the projective plane. Given a Severi-Brauer surface, we study the problem to decide whether such an isomorphism to the projective plane,…
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…
We present a new approach using differential invariants to detect projective equivalences and symmetries between two rational parametric $3D$ curves properly parametrized. In order to do this, we introduce two differential invariants that…
It is proved that a smooth rational surface in projective four-space, which is ruled by cubics or quartics has degree at most 12. It is also proved that a smooth rational surface in projective four-space which is the image of Fn by a linear…
We classify real families of minimal degree rational curves that cover an embedded rational surface. A corollary is that if the projective closure of a smooth surface is not biregular isomorphic to the projective closure of the unit-sphere,…
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…
In this paper we provide, first, a general symbolic algorithm for computing the symmetries of a given rational surface, based on the classical differential invariants of surfaces, i.e. Gauss curvature and mean curvature. In practice, the…
We introduce a characterization for affine equivalence of two surfaces of translation defined by either rational or meromorphic generators. In turn, this induces a similar characterization for minimal surfaces. In the rational case, our…
The developable surface is an important surface in computer aided design, geometric modeling and industrial manufactory. It is often given in the stan- dard parametric form, but it can also be in the implicit form which is commonly used in…
We present an algorithm that covers any given rational ruled surface with two rational parametrizations. In addition, we present an algorithm that transforms any rational surface parametrization into a new rational surface parametrization…
