Incidence constraints: A combinatorial approach
The simplest geometric constraints are incidences between points and lines in the projective plane. This problem is universal, in the sense that all algebraic systems reduce to such geometric constraints. Detecting incidence dependences between these geometric constraints is NP-complete. New methods to prove incidence theorems are proposed, which use strictly no computer algebra but only combinatorial arguments.
