D.12.6 rootsmr_lib

Library:
rootsmr.lib
Purpose:
Counting the number of real roots of polynomial systems
Author:
Enrique A. Tobis, etobis@dc.uba.ar

Overview:
Routines for counting the number of real roots of a multivariate polynomial system. Two methods are implemented: deterministic computation of the number of roots, via the signature of a certain bilinear form (nrRootsDeterm); and a rational univariate projection, using a pseudorandom polynomial (nrRootsProbab). It also includes a command to verify the correctness of the pseudorandom answer.
