Abstract: Consider the set of solutions to a system of polynomial equations in many variables. An algebraic manifold is an open submanifold of such a set. We introduce a new method for computing integrals and sampling from distributions on algebraic manifolds. This method is based on intersecting with random linear spaces. It produces i.i.d. samples, works in the presence of multiple connected components, and is simple to implement. We present applications to computational statistical physics and topological data analysis.
