Overview

This book provides a systematic and uniform presentation of elimination methods and the underlying theories, along the central line of decomposing arbitrary systems of polynomials into triangular systems of various kinds. Highlighting methods based on triangular sets, the book also covers the theory and techniques of resultants and Grobner bases. The methods and their efficiency are illustrated by fully worked out examples and their applications to selected problems such as from polynomial ideal theory, automated theorem proving in geometry and the qualitative study of differential equations. The reader will find the formally described algorithms ready for immediate implementation and applicable to many other problems. Suitable as a graduate text, this book offers an indispensable reference for everyone interested in mathematical computation, computer algebra (software), and systems of algebraic equations.

This book, therefore, is not only topical, but is also the first book that contains all major currently available algorithmic approaches on elimination theory in one conceptional frame ... The book is well suited both as a textbook and as a research reference for the state of the art in algorithmic elimination theory. Theorems and proofs are presented in such a way that the correctness of the algorithms based on them can easily be verified. Well-chosen examples make it easy to understand the concepts and the methods. The main contents of this book - altough not all details - should enter standard curricula on algebra.
