About the Book
Many important topics in applied geometry cannot be solved effi-
ciently without using mathematical tools. This book presents, in a
rather light way, some mathematical tools that are useful in many
domains, such as computer graphics, image processing, computer
vision, digital geometry processing and geometry in general.
What the book includes
This book presents a collection of mathematical tools that corre-
spond to a broad spectrum of applied mathematics and computer
science. The book consists of thirteen chapters, each of which cov-
ers one topic. The topics are deliberately meant to be uncoupled
and can be read or taught in any order. However, the first two
chapters discuss more fundamental tools, and serve either to recall
or to intro
