Introduction

Bertini is software for numerical algebraic geometry, i.e., software for computing and using numerical approximations of solutions of polynomial systems. Bertini 2 is the redevelopment of classic Bertini (1).

Purpose for redevelopment

Bertini developed started around 2002, with the initial beta release in 2006. As with virtually all code, Bertini outgrew its original scope and development plan. Maintenance and extension have become increasingly difficult.

The NSF has kindly chosen to support this redevelopment through awards to University of Notre Dame and Colorado State University.
