Aim and Scope
The session is devoted to the algorithmic aspects and applications of computer algebra in topological and geometric computing. The algebraic algorithms can be successfully applied in a various applications including, for example, computer graphics, robotics, computer aided geometric design (CAGD), computer aided manufacturing (CAM), computer assisted surgery, geometric theorem proving, etc.

The goal of this forum is to exchange ideas and views and present research results concerning both theoretical foundations and recent geometric applications in science and industry.
