Abstract :
We give an algorithm to construct a cell decomposition of Rd, including adjacency information, defined by any given set of rational polynomials in d variables. The algorithm runs in single exponential parallel time, and in NC for fixed d. The algorithm extends a recent algorithm of Ben-Or, Kozen, and Reif for deciding the theory of real closed fields.
