What are ways to render objects that are implicitly defined given that it is expensive to find all the points in the shape?

@cxiao One method is ray tracing! Send out a ray per pixel and find where it intersects the shape boundary. This can be rather efficient if the solution happens to have a closed form for a particular shape, or it can require iterative numerical methods if not.
