RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 An algorithm to parametrize approximately space curves A1 Rueda Pérez, Sonia Luisa A1 Sendra Pons, Juana A1 Sendra Pons, Juan Rafael K1 Space curve K1 Rational parametrization K1 Hausdorff distance K1 Ciencia K1 Matemáticas K1 Science K1 Mathematics AB We present an algorithm that, given a non-rational irreduciblereal space curve, satisfying certain conditions, computes a rationalparametrization of a space curve near the input one. For a giventolerance \epsilon > 0, the algorithm checks whether a planar projectionof the given space curve is \epsilon -rational and, in the affirmativecase, generates a planar parametrization that is lifted to a spaceparametrization. This output rational space curve is of the samedegree as the input curve, both have the same structure at infinity,and the Hausdorff distance between their real parts is finite.Moreover, in the examples we check that the distance is small.
