Creating Representations for Continuously Moving Regions from Observations
Recently there is much interest in moving objects databases, and data models and query languages have been proposed offering data types such as moving point and moving region toge...

On Unfolding Lattice Polygons/Trees and Diameter-4 Trees
We consider the problems of straightening polygonal trees and convexifying polygons by continuous motions such that rigid edges can rotate around vertex joints and no edge crossing...

The Two Guards Problem
Given a simple polygon in the plane with two distinguished vertices, s and g, is it possible for two guards to simultaneously walk along the two boundary chains from s to g in suc...

Curve Shortening and the Rendezvous Problem for Mobile Autonomous Robots
If a smooth, closed, and embedded curve is deformed along its normal vector field at a rate proportional to its curvature, it shrinks to a circular point. This curve evolution is ...

On Minimum-Area Hulls
Abstract. We study some minimum-area hull problems that generalize the notion of convex hull to starshaped and monotone hulls. Specifically, we consider the minimum-area star-shap...
