+algorithms for solving polynomial systems (with rational coefficients or
+coefficients in a prime field).
+
+Currently, with msolve, you can basically solve multivariate polynomial
+systems.  This encompasses:
+
+@itemize
+@item the computation of Groebner bases
+@item real root isolation of the solutions to polynomial systems
+@item the computation of the dimension and the degree of the solution set.
