Description: general-purpose solver for polynomial systems (command line)
PHCpack is a software package to solve polynomial systems by homotopy
continuation methods.
.
A polynomial system is given as a sequence of polynomials in several
variables. Homotopy continuation methods operate in two stages. In
the first stage, a family of polynomial systems (the so-called
homotopy) is constructed. This homotopy contains a polynomial system
with known solutions. In the second stage, numerical continuation
methods are applied to track the solution paths defined by the
homotopy, starting at the known solutions and leading to the solutions
of the given polynomial system.
.
This package contains the command line interface to PHCpack.
