Abstract

Implicit is a package for implicitizing rational planar curves and rational tensor product surfaces, developed on Maplesoft based on the state-of-the-art implicitization techniques. The main functions ImpCurve and ImpSurface return the implicit equation of a rational planar curve or a rational tensor product surface. Other popularly used functions, such as ImpDegree, ImpMatrix and ImpRuled that are used for deciding the implicit degree and the implicit matrix of a general rational surface, and computing the implicit equation of a rational ruled surface in a more efficient way, are also proposed.
