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...

Optimality and Competitiveness of Exploring Polygons by Mobile Robots
Abstract. A mobile robot, represented by a point moving along a polygonal line in the plane, has to explore an unknown polygon and return to the starting point. The robot has a sen...

The Newton Polygon of a Rational Plane Curve
The Newton polygon of the implicit equation of a rational plane curve is explicitly determined by the multiplicities of any of its parametrizations. We give an intersection-theoret...
