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 ...

Nearest point to a real algebraic set
Suppose I have a compact bounded real algebraic (eventually: or analytic or semialgebraic or semianalytic set) $V \subset \mathbb R^3$ and a point $x\in\mathbb R^3 \setminus V$. How much do we know ...

Does generic projection into $\mathbb{R}^3$ preserve real-algebraic-curve-ness?
I'm interested in the topological properties of certain real algebraic curves in high-dimensional spaces. I want to visualize these curves (say, like this), and so I'm pursuing dimensionality ...

Connectedness of semialgebraic sets via CAD
I do not know whether there is a standard or some traditional ways to decide whether a semialgebraic set is connected or not.
One way I know is the cylindrical algebraic decomposition (CAD) algorithm. ...

Are nearby points in an algebraic curve necessarily connected?
I would like a result of the following form:
For every algebraic curve $C$ in $\mathbb{R}\mathbf{P}^{n-1}$, there exists an
explicit and easy-to-compute $\epsilon=\epsilon(C)>0$ such that ...

Cylindrical Decomposition vs Morse decomposition
Suppose I have a polynomial Morse function $f: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$. Consider the ideal $I(\nabla f)$ generated by the partial derivatives $\partial_i f$, and assume that the real zero-set of ...

Biggest Cartesian Product Included in a Real Plane Curve
Suppose an irreducible smooth $p \in \mathbb{R}[x_1,x_2]$ is given, and we would like to find finite sets $S_1 , S_2 \subset \mathbb{R}$ such that $p(S_1 \times S_2)=0$ and $|S_1 \times S_2|$ is as ...
