Subdivisions and antiprisms for PL homotopy algorithms

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5618859
The study of homotopies for solving equations is an important and rapidly growing field which has applications to economics, game theory, and differential equations. Much progress has been made in recent years on improving the efficiency of homotopy methods. One critical factor in the efficiency of the piecewise linear (PL) homotopy method is the subdivision used. Several new subdivisions have been proposed, but there has been relatively little comparison of these subdivisions. This disseration focuses on the construction, implementation, analysis, and comparison of subdivisions for PL homotopy algorithms.
