Description of the research topic:

Overview of the existing theories and tools for computing symbolically with semialgebraic sets. Suitable problem
formulations to answer simple questions related to dynamical systems. As case studies, we will use these tools to characterize the stability regions of
simple difference equations (predator-prey and economy models) and the reachable sets of differential equations (how a mobile vehicle may be
controlled to avoid unsafe regions). As an extension we may investigate how numeric techniques and approximations help, when symbolic tools cannot be applied directly. Comparison of strict results with the approximate results of machine learning techniques.
