    EMS Industrial and Applied Mathematics
    Volume: 42024; 400 pp
    MSC: Primary 55; Secondary 68; 93

    The task of programming a machine to move autonomously and to make autonomous decisions is one of the major challenges of AI. The algorithms generating autonomous robot motions and autonomous decisions are sections of certain fibre bundles and their complexity and structure can be understood using tools of algebraic topology.

    The book gives an overview of the current achievements in the field of topological robotics concerned with motion algorithms and, in particular, how their complexity depends on the topology of the configuration space of the system and the external conditions. The book is a collection of survey articles written by leading researchers in the fields of mathematics, engineering, and computer science with each chapter surveying a different theme or technique.

    A publication of the European Mathematical Society (EMS). Distributed within the Americas by the American Mathematical Society.

    Readership

    Mathematicians, graduate students, and researchers interested in applications of algebraic topology, as well as engineers designing autonomous motion algorithms.
