We propose an algebraic construction of $(d+1)$-point $D$-optimal
designs for $d$th degree polynomial regression with weight
function $omega(x)ge 0$ on the interval $[a,b]$. Suppose that
$omega'(x)/omega(x)$ is a rational function and the information
of whether the optimal support contains the boundary points $a$
and $b$ is available. Then the problem of constructing
$(d+1)$-point $D$-optimal designs can be transformed into a
differential equation problem leading us to a certain matrix
including a finite number of auxiliary unknown constants, which
can be solved from a system of polynomial equations in those
constants. Moreover, the $(d+1)$-point $D$-optimal interior
support points are the zeros of a certain polynomial which the
coefficients can be computed from a linear system. In most cases
the $(d+1)$-point $D$-optimal designs are also the approximate
$D$-optimal designs.
