A Local Cell Quality Metric and Variational Grid Smoothing Algorithm
A local cell quality metric is introduced and used to construct a variational functional for a grid smoothing algorithm. A maximum principle is proved and the properties of the loc...

Minimum-Link Paths Among Obstacles in the Plane
Given a set of nonintersecting polygonal obstacles in the plane, the link distance between two points s and t is the minimum number of edges required to form a polygonal path conn...

Intersecting quadrics: an efficient and exact implementation
We present the first complete, exact, and efficient C++ implementation for parameterizing the intersection of two implicit quadrics with integer coefficients of arbitrary size. It...
