Abstract
We consider the problem of deciding whether two given points in a semialgebraic set can be connected, that is, whether the two points lie in a same connected component. In particular, we consider a semialgebraic set consisting of points where a given polynomial is non-zero. We will describe a method based on gradient fields, eigenvectors and interval analysis.
