contents We introduce the concept of homotopy iterators for performing polynomial homotopy continuation tasks in a memory efficient manner. The main idea is to push forward an iterator for the start solutions of a homotopy via the function which tracks them along the homotopy. Doing so produces a representation of the target solutions, bypassing the need to hold all solutions in memory. We discuss several applications of this datatype ranging from solution counting to data compression.
