An Incremental Algorithm for Computing Cylindrical Algebraic Decompositions

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we propose an incremental algorithm for computing cylindrical algebraic decompositions. The algorithm consists of two parts: computing a complex cylindrical tree and refining this complex tree into a cylindrical tree in real space. The incrementality comes from the first part of the algorithm, where a complex cylindrical tree is constructed by refining a previous complex cylindrical tree with a polynomial constraint. We have implemented our algorithm in Maple. The experimentation shows that the proposed algorithm outperforms existing ones for many examples taken from the literature.
