The solutions of a system of polynomials in several variables are often needed, e.g.: in the design of mechanical systems, and in phase-space analyses of nonlinear biological dynamics. Reliable, accurate, and comprehensive numerical…

PHCpack is a large software package for solving systems of polynomial equations. The executable phc is menu driven and file oriented. This paper describes the development of phcpy, a Python interface to PHCpack. Instead of navigating…

We consider the problem of tracking one solution path defined by a polynomial homotopy on a parallel shared memory computer. Our robust path tracker applies Newton's method on power series to locate the closest singular parameter value. On…

The Macaulay2 package PHCpack.m2 provides an interface to PHCpack, a general-purpose polynomial system solver that uses homotopy continuation. The main method is a numerical blackbox solver which is implemented for all Laurent systems. The…

A polynomial homotopy is a family of polynomial systems in one parameter, which defines solution paths starting from known solutions and ending at solutions of a system that has to be solved. We consider paths leading to isolated singular…

This article develops a new predictor-corrector algorithm for numerical path tracking in the context of polynomial homotopy continuation. In the corrector step it uses a newly developed Newton corrector algorithm which rejects an initial…

We propose a new algorithm for numerical path tracking in polynomial homotopy continuation. The algorithm is `robust' in the sense that it is designed to prevent path jumping and in many cases, it can be used in (only) double precision…

A polynomial homotopy is a family of polynomial systems, where the systems in the family depend on one parameter. If for one value of the parameter we know a regular solution, then what is the nearest value of the parameter for which the…

A special homotopy continuation method, as a combination of the polyhedral homotopy and the linear product homotopy, is proposed for computing all the isolated solutions to a special class of polynomial systems. The root number bound of…

Polynomial systems occur in many areas of science and engineering. Unlike general nonlinear systems, the algebraic structure enables to compute all solutions of a polynomial system. We describe our massive parallel predictor-corrector…

We present a new numerical homotopy continuation algorithm for finding all solutions to Schubert problems on Grassmannians. This Littlewood-Richardson homotopy is based on Vakil's geometric proof of the Littlewood-Richardson rule. Its start…

The homotopy continuation method has been widely used in solving parametric systems of nonlinear equations. But it can be very expensive and inefficient due to singularities during the tracking even though both start and end points are…

The goal of this paper is to study the path-following method for univariate polynomials. We propose to study the complexity and condition properties when the Newton method is applied as a correction operator. Then we study the geodesics and…

While automatically generated polynomial elimination templates have sparked great progress in the field of 3D computer vision, there remain many problems for which the degree of the constraints or the number of unknowns leads to…

We use our recent implementation of a certified homotopy tracking algorithm to search for start systems that minimize the average complexity of finding all roots of a regular system of polynomial equations. While finding optimal start…

Given a C^1 path of systems of homogeneous polynomial equations f_t, t in [a,b] and an approximation x_a to a zero zeta_a of the initial system f_a, we show how to adaptively choose the step size for a Newton based homotopy method so that…

A path tracking algorithm that adaptively adjusts precision is presented. By adjusting the level of precision in accordance with the numerical conditioning of the path, the algorithm achieves high reliability with less computational cost…

We revisit the problem of certifying the correctness of approximate solution paths computed by numerical homotopy continuation methods. We propose a conceptually simple approach based on a parametric variant of the Krawczyk method from…

Homotopy methods to solve polynomial systems are well suited for parallel computing because the solution paths defined by the homotopy can be tracked independently. Both the static and dynamic load balancing models are implemented in C with…

We present the Julia package HomotopyContinuation.jl, which provides an algorithmic framework for solving polynomial systems by numerical homotopy continuation. We introduce the basic capabilities of the package and demonstrate the software…
