dc.descriptionWe introduce a subexponential algorithm for geometric solving of multivariate polynomial equation systems whose bit complexity depends mainly on intrinsic geometric invariants of the solution set. From this algorithm, we derive a new procedure for the decision of consistency of polynomial equation systems whose bit complexity is subexponential, too. As a byproduct, we analyze the division of a polynomial modulo a reduced complete intersection ideal and from this, we obtain an intrinsic lower bound for the logarithmic height of diophantine approximations to a given solution of a zero--dimensional polynomial equation system. This result represents a multivariate version of Liouville's classical theorem on approximation of algebraic numbers by rationals. A special feature of our procedures is their {\em polynomial} character with respect to the mentioned geometric invariants when instead of bit operations only arithmetic operations are counted at unit cost. Technically our paper relies on the use of straight--line programs as a data structure for the encoding of polynomials, on a new symbolic application of Newton's algorithm to the Implicit Function Theorem and on a special, basis independent trace formula for affine Gorenstein algebras.
