When is cohomology of a finitely presented dg-algebra computable?

Given a smooth affine variety $X$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, its singular cohomology is isomorphic to the algebraic de Rham cohomology, which is the cohomology of the complex $\Omega_X^0\to\Omega_X^1\...

Computer algebra tools for finding real dimension of an algebraic variety

I have a system of polynomial equations with the unknowns being real numbers. The set of solutions is infinite. What software can I use to compute the real dimension of the solution set? The CAD-based ...

Computing whether a set of polynomials cuts out a projective variety

I have a set of multivariate polynomials over $\mathbb{Q}$, and I want to compute whether they cut out a projective variety, i.e. whether the radical of the ideal $I$ that they generate is homogeneous....

Efficient algorithm to prove that a polynomial ideal contains 1

I have the following problem: Suppose to have an ideal $I\triangleleft k[x_1,...,x_n]$ defined by generators. There exists an efficient algorithm (perhaps more efficient than calculating the Groebner ...

Computing all roots of a function with square-root terms

Given $3n$ positive numbers $a_1, \ldots, a_n$, $b_1, \ldots, b_n$, and $x_1, \ldots, x_n$, we are given a function $$f(x) = \sum_{i = 1}^n \frac{a_i}{\sqrt{(x - x_i)^2 + b_i}}.$$ Can we find all the ...

Using Bertini software to determine whether or not a variety is empty

I have a system of polynomials $f_1,\dots, f_n \in \mathbb{C}[x_1,\dots, x_m]$, and I would like to determine whether the set of solutions to the system $f_1(x)=\dots=f_n(x)=0$ is empty or not. Since ...

Finding generators of symmetric cones

I have a bunch of vectors $\mathbf v_i$ in $\mathbb R^n$. I would like to consider the cone $C$ spanned by these vectors, together with all the other vectors that can be obtained by permuting the ...
