Abstract:
This paper is gives a short introduction into HomotopyContinuation.jl, a polynomial equations solver for Julia [1]. It present excerpts from the comprehensive documentation available at juliahomotopycontinuation.github.io/latest/. The aim of this project is twofold: establishing a fast numerical polynomial solver in Julia and at the same time providing a highly customizable algorithmic environment for researchers for designing and performing individual experiments.
