Special track on Geometric Constraints and Reasoning
2008
Geometric Computing and Reasoning (GCR) aims at emphasizing recent trends in the domain of geometric constraint solving and automated, or computer aided deduction in geometry. This year sees the third edition of this technical track of SAC.
Interrogating witnesses for geometric constraint solving
2012
International audience; Classically, geometric constraint solvers use graph-based methods to decompose systems of geometric constraints. These methods have intrinsic limitations, which the witness method overcomes; a witness is a solution of a variant of the system. This paper details the computation of a basis of the vector space of free infinitesimal motions of a typical witness, and explains how to use this basis to interrogate the witness for dependence detection. The paper shows that the witness method detects all kinds of dependences: structural dependences already detectable by graph-based methods, but also non-structural dependences, due to known or unknown geometric theorems, which…
