"Polyhedral and Algebraic Methods in Computational Geometry "provides a thorough introduction into algorithmic geometry and its applications. It presents its primary topics from the viewpoints of discrete, convex and elementary algebraic geometry.The first part of the book studies classical problems and techniques that refer to polyhedral structures. The authors include a study on algorithms for computing convex hulls as well as the construction of Voronoi diagrams and Delone triangulations.The second part of the book develops the primary concepts of (non-linear) computational algebraic geometry. Here, the book looks at Grobner bases and solving systems of polynomial equations. The theory is illustrated by applications in computer graphics, curve reconstruction and robotics.Throughout the book, interconnections between computational geometry and other disciplines (such as algebraic geometry, optimization and numerical mathematics) are established."Polyhedral and Algebraic Methods in Computational Geometry" is directed towards advanced undergraduates in mathematics and computer science, as well as towards engineering students who are interested in the applications of computational geometry.

From the reviews:
“The authors discuss in the book a selection of linear and non-linear topics in computational geometry. ... The book’s audience is made up of mathematicians interested in applications of geometry and algebra as well as computer scientists and engineers with good mathematical background.” (Antonio Valdés Morales, The European Mathematical Society, September, 2013)"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
