  • Abstract
    This paper presents a new method on the intersection testing problem between an ellipsoid and an algebraic surface. In the new method, the testing problem is turned into a new testing problem whether a univariate polynomial has a positive or negative real root. Examples are shown to illustrate the robustness and efficiency of the new method.
