We describe a deterministic algorithm that computes an approximate root of n complex polynomial equations in n unknowns in average polynomial time with respect to the size of the input, in the Blum-Shub-Smale model with square root. It rests upon a derandomization of an algorithm of Beltrán and Pardo and gives a deterministic affirmative answer to Smale's 17th problem. The main idea is to make use of the randomness contained in the input itself.

We introduce monomial divisibility diagrams (MDDs), a data structure for monomial ideals that supports insertion of new generators and fast membership tests. MDDs stem from a canonical tree representation by maximally sharing equal subtrees, yielding a directed acyclic graph. We establish basic complexity bounds for membership and insertion, and study empirically the size of MDDs. As an application, we integrate MDDs into the signature Gröbner basis implementation of the Julia package AlgebraicSolving.jl. Membership tests in monomial ideals are used to detect some reductions to zero, and the use of MDDs leads to substantial speed-ups compared to the existing representation by lists of generators with divmasks.

We present a new algorithm for solving the reduction problem in the context of holonomic integrals, which in turn provides an approach to integration with parameters. Our method extends the Griffiths--Dwork reduction technique to holonomic systems and is implemented in Julia. While not yet outperforming creative telescoping in D-finite cases, it enhances computational capabilities within the holonomic framework. As an application, we derive a previously unattainable differential equation for the generating series of 8-regular graphs.
