Degeneracy and Instability in Geometric Computation
[chapter]
2001
Geometric Modelling
Instability in geometric computation comes from numerical errors, which first cause misjudgements of geometric structure, and then generate topological inconsistency. ...
This paper describes main sources of instability in geometric computation, and reviews two mutually opposite approaches to this problem. ...
The symbolic perturbation scheme enables us to ignore tedious exceptional treatment of degenerate cases, but we have to be careful in the use of the output for the degenerate input. ...

Current Opinion
In speaking of the process of conventional- ization or degeneration of realistic motives, Profwssor Hamlin says: ‘‘ Indeed, this degener- ation may reasonably be accepted as suggesting that the geometric ...
forms which it approaches were already in habitual use when it began, and that the direction of the degeneration was determined by a pre-existing habit or ‘ex- pectancy’ of geometric form acquired in ...
Geometry of the transport equation in multicomponent WKB approximations
1996
Communications in Mathematical Physics
In this paper we give a completely geometric derivation of the transport equation, without using local sections and without assuming complete diagonalizability of the matrix valued principal symbol, or ...
In the non-degenerate case this term may be rewritten in an even simpler geometric form. ...
The research of both authors was partially supported by DOE Contract DE-FG03-93ER25177. ...

Automatic deduction in (dynamic) geometry: Loci computation
2014
Computational geometry
The algorithm, based on a recent work on the Gröbner cover of parametric systems, identifies degenerate components and extraneous adherence points in loci, both natural byproducts of general polynomial ...
Locus computation algorithms based on Automatic Deduction techniques are recalled and presented as basic for an efficient treatment of advanced methods in dynamic geometry. ...
Finally, we want to acknowledge the work and suggestions of the referees, that have contributed to substantially improve our work. ...

A deterministic pseudorandom perturbation scheme for arbitrary polynomial predicates
[article]
2013
arXiv
pre-print
We present a symbolic perturbation scheme for arbitrary polynomial geometric predicates which combines the benefits of Emiris and Canny's simple randomized linear perturbation scheme with Yap's multiple ...
For nonmaliciously chosen predicates, our method is as fast as the linear scheme, scaling reasonably with the degree of the polynomial even for fully degenerate input. ...
We describe symbolic perturbation in the framework of nonstandard analysis; see [19] , [8] , and [17] for the geometric meaning of this approach. ...

Therefore, we use a three-valued logic for the definition of geometric primitives to explicitly handle such degenerate cases. ...

Handling degenerate cases in exact geodesic computation on triangle meshes
2007
The Visual Computer
By applying these geometric algorithms to real-world data, degenerate cases frequently appear. In this paper we classify and enumerate all the degenerate cases in a systematic way. ...
The computation of exact geodesics on triangle meshes is a widely used operation in computeraided design and computer graphics. ...
In geometric computation, degenerate cases will increase the instability of the generic algorithm. Theoretically, degenerate cases can be handled by using the symbolic perturbation scheme [1] . ...

Asymptotics of relativistic spin networks
2003
Classical and quantum gravity
For the 4-simplex (10j-symbol) the asymptotic formula is compared with numerical calculations of the Spin Network evaluation. Finally we discuss the asymptotics of the SO(3,1) 10j-symbol. ...
For the tetrahedral spin network this gives the square of the Ponzano-Regge asymptotic formula for the SU(2) 6j symbol. ...
An interesting feature of our analysis, carried out using the stationary phase approximation to an integral, is that it has both 'degenerate' and 'non-degenerate' geometrical configurations. ...

Sketch-based pruning of a solution space within a formal geometric constraint solver
2000
Artificial Intelligence
In CAD systems, formal geometric solvers enable the designer to draw a sketch and to provide constraints that are compiled into a construction plan by symbolic geometric reasoning. ...
But when the number of solutions becomes too high, it is very time-consuming to examine each of them to determine which one is the closest to the user's will. ...
Since the symbolic resolution of a system S consists in building a triangular solved system T (see [9] ) which is equivalent to S, the degenerate cases of S are the degenerate cases of T , and conversely ...

We set up a deduction calculus for internal geometric theories and show that it proves a contradiction if and only if the classifying topos of that theory is degenerate. ...

Engineering with Computers
The embedded Voronoi graph contains the full symbolic information of the Voronoi diagram and the medial axis of the object, and a geometric approximation to the real geometry. ...

Qualitative Symbolic Perturbation
2016
International Symposium on Computational Geometry
In a classical Symbolic Perturbation scheme, degeneracies are handled by substituting some polynomials in ε for the inputs of a predicate. ...
Moreover, we look at their effects geometrically instead of algebraically; this allows us to tackle cases that were not tractable with the classical algebraic approach. ...
Introduction In earlier computational geometry papers, the treatment of degenerate configurations was mainly ignored. However, degenerate situations actually do occur in practice. ...
