Popis
Shrnutí:Answering connectivity queries in real algebraic sets is a fundamental problem in effective real algebraic geometry that finds many applications in e.g. robotics where motion planning issues are topical. This computational problem is tackled through the computation of so-called roadmaps which are real algebraic subsets of the set V under study, of dimension at most one, and which have a connected intersection with all semi-algebraically connected components of V. Algorithms for computing roadmaps rely on statements establishing connectivity properties of some well-chosen subsets of V, assuming that V is bounded. In this paper, we extend such connectivity statements by dropping the boundedness assumption on V. This exploits properties of so-called generalized polar varieties, which are critical loci of V for some well-chosen polynomial maps.
