Synopses & Reviews
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Automated Deduction in Geometry, ADG 2000, held in Zurich, Switzerland, in September 2000. The 16 revised full papers and two invited papers presented were carefully selected for publication during two rounds of reviewing and revision from a total of initially 31 submissions. Among the issues addressed are spatial constraint solving, automated proving of geometric inequalities, algebraic proof, semi-algebraic proofs, geometrical reasoning, computational synthetic geometry, incidence geometry, and nonstandard geometric proofs.
Synopsis
With a standard program committee and a pre-review process, the Third - ternational Workshop on Automated Deduction in Geometry (ADG 2000) held in Zurich, Switzerland, September 25-27, 2000 was made more formal than the previous ADG '96 (Toulouse, September 1996) and ADG '98 (Beijing, August 1998). The workshop program featured two invited talks given by Christoph M. Ho?mann and Jurgen ] Bokowski, one open session talk by Wen-tsun ] Wu, 18 regular presentations, and 7 short communications, together with software demonstrations (see http: //calfor.lip6.fr/ wang/ADG2000/). Some of the most recent and signi?cant research developments on geometric deduction were - ported and reviewed, and the workshop was well focused at a high scienti?c level. Fifteen contributions (out of the 18 regular presentations selected by the program committee from 31 submissions) and 2 invited papers were chosen for publication in these proceedings. These papers were all formally refereed and most of them underwent a double review-revision process. We hope that this volume meets the usual standard of international conference proceedings, rep- sentsthecurrentstateoftheartofADG, andwillbecomeavaluablereferencefor researchers, practitioners, software engineers, educators, and students in many ADG-related areas from mathematics to CAGD and geometric modeling.
