Recent advances in both the theory and implementation of
computational algebraic geometry have led to new, striking
applications to a variety of fields of research. The articles in
this volume highlight a range of these applications and provide
introductory material for topics covered in the IMA workshops on
"Optimization and Control" and "Applications in Biology, Dynamics,
and Statistics" held during the IMA year on Applications of
Algebraic Geometry. The articles related to optimization and
control focus on burgeoning use of semidefinite programming and
moment matrix techniques in computational real algebraic geometry.
The new direction towards a systematic study of non-commutative
real algebraic geometry is well represented in the volume. Other
articles provide an overview of the way computational algebra is
useful for analysis of contingency tables, reconstruction of
phylogenetic trees, and in systems biology. The contributions
collected in this volume are accessible to non-experts,
self-contained and informative; they quickly move towards cutting
edge research in these areas, and provide a wealth of open problems
for future research.
