To create:
- Nonlinear algebra - currently redirects to Algebraic equation. We have a draft under construction: (Draft:Nonlinear algebra)
- Numerical certification (Draft:Numerical certification)
- Syzygy (mathematics) - currently redirects to Hilbert syzygy theorem. We have a draft under construction: (Draft:Syzygy (mathematics))
- Real nullstellensatz
- Real radical (Draft:Real radical)
- Computational algebraic geometry - needs to be a main page, currently a section in Algebraic geometry
- Start system - linked to from numerical algebraic geometry
To improve:
- System of polynomial equations - article doesn't represent the current state of the art
- Numerical algebraic geometry - article is stubby
- Algebraic statistics - article doesn't represent the current state of the art
- Tropical geometry - quite short
- Dimension of an algebraic variety - needs improvement (has tag)
- Symbolic-numeric computation
- Stewart platform - introduce a mathematical perspective
- Numerical continuation - needs backward references to the numerical algebraic geometry flavor of homotopy continuation
- Spectrahedron - very short
