Algebraic Geometry and Geometric Modeling edited by Mohamed Elkadi, Bernard Mourrain, Ragni Piene.

Algebraic Geometry provides an impressive theory targeting the understanding of geometric objects defined algebraically. Geometric Modeling uses every day, in order to solve practical and difficult problems, digital shapes based on algebraic models. In this book, we have collected articles bridging...
