Algorithms in Real Algebraic Geometry by Saugata Basu, Richard Pollack, Marie-Françoise Coste-Roy.

The algorithmic problems of real algebraic geometry such as real root counting, deciding the existence of solutions of systems of polynomial equations and inequalities, or deciding whether two points belong in the same connected component of a semi-algebraic set occur in many contexts. In this first...
