| contents | Computing the isotopy type of a hypersurface, defined as the positive real zero set of a multivariate polynomial, is a challenging problem in real algebraic geometry. We focus on the case where the defining polynomial has combinatorially restricted exponent vectors and fixed coefficient signs, enabling faster computation of the isotopy type. In particular, Viro's patchworking provides a polyhedral complex that has the same isotopy type as the hypersurface, for certain choices of the coefficients. So we present properties of the signed support, focussing mainly on the case of n-variate (n+3)-nomials, that ensure all possible isotopy types can be obtained via patchworking. To prove this, we study the signed reduced A-discriminant and show that it has a simple structure if the signed support satisfies some combinatorial conditions. |
