Description

This is a very exciting release for us. We changed a lot of internals and restructured the solve command and changed our end game strategy. As a a result we do not any more compute the solutions in two separate stages. For you this means faster computations, better progress report and the possibility to interrupt computations without losing everything!

Additionally we now also support the solution of overdetermined systems. We consider this in a beta stage, so if you have any feedback let us know!

We also updated the content at our homepage, so make your to take a look.

If you encounter any problems, please open an issue.

New Features
  • Possibility to interrupt computations with ctrl-c
  • Better progress meter in solve
  • Solve overdetermined system by randomization and post-processing
  • Possibility to track paths in affine space rather than projective space
  • A better api to change parameters in parameter homotopies
Breaking Changes
  • New endgame routine and therefore new keyword arguments
  • We have an all new PathTracker object to track the single path, the previous PathTracker is now called CoreTracker and has a coretracker_startsolutions to construct it. The new PathTracker takes care of not only tracking but also singular solutions and diverging paths
