Abstract

A precise formulation for the relations among certain variables under a set of polynomial equations and a set of polynomial inequations (to exclude certain special cases which cannot be excluded by the selection of parameters alone) is given. Several methods are presented to find such relations. The methods have been implemented and used to find geometry formulas, to discover geometry theorems, and to find geometry locus equations. About 120 non-trivial problems have been solved using the methods.
