AGGM 2009


Algebraic Geometry and Geometric Modeling both deal with curves and surfaces generated by polynomial equations. AG investigates the theoretical properties of polynomial curves and surfaces; GM uses polynomial, piecewise polynomial, and rational curves and surfaces to build computer models of mechanical components and assemblies for industrial design and manufacture.

The aim of this workshop is to present new results, algorithms, developments or applications of effective algebraic geometry in Geometric Modeling. On the one hand, Algebraic Geometry has developed an impressive theory targeting the understanding of geometric objects defined algebraically. On the other hand, Geometric Modeling is using every day, in practical and difficult problems, virtual shapes based on algebraic models. Could these two domains benefit from each other? Recent and interesting developments in this direction are about to convince us to answer yes. The workshop will try to reinforce the natural bridge which exists between these two areas, expecting as a result, a better analysis of the key problems and of the related approaches.

Previous AGGM's were held in Vilnius 2002, Nice 2004, and Barcelona 2006.
