✦ Synopsis

Universal parametrizations make it possible to find all rational parametrizations and all rational curves on an implicit surface. The rational curves and patches can be described with optimal degree as images under such a universal parametrization. Hence, the rational curves on the surface can be classified in a systematic way.

Interpolation problems on the surface are reduced to ordinary interpolation problems. Other than a usual parametrization, a universal parametrizations allows to control the degree of the interpolating curve or patch on the surface. To avoid nonlinear equation systems, simpler parametrizations can be derived from a universal parametrization.

We present universal parametrizations for three different classes of cubic surfaces. According to a conjecture by Krasauskas, this covers all cubic surfaces, which possess a universal parametrization.

Universal parametrizations have been developed as an useful tool for working with rational surfaces. For example, they allow the systematic classification of rational curves with low degree on the surface and can be used for interpolation problems. Unfortunately, it is conjectured, that not every ra

In this paper we unify the two subjects of implicitization and parametrization of nonsingular cubic surfaces. Beginning with a cubic parametrization with six basepoints, we first form a three by four Hilbert-Burch matrix, and then a three by three matrix of linear forms whose determinant is the impl

A bivariate polynomial interpolation problem for points lying on an algebraic curve is introduced. The geometric characterization introduced by Chung and Yao, which provides simple Lagrange formulae, is here analyzed for interpolation points lying on a line, a conic or a cubic.

A Igorithms that can obtain rational and special parametric equations for degree three algebraic curves (cubics) and degree three algebraic surfaces (cubicoids), given their implicit equations are described. These algorithms have been implemented on a VAX8600 using VAXIMA.
