The intersection of two ruled surfaces
This article presents an efficient and robust algorithm that computes the intersection curve of two ruled surfaces. The surface intersection problem is reformulated as a zero-set ...

Curves That Must Be Retraced
We exhibit a polynomial time computable plane curve Γ that has finite length, does not intersect itself, and is smooth except at one endpoint, but has the following property. For...

On Inducing Polygons and Related Problems
Bose et al. [2] asked whether for every simple arrangement A of n lines in the plane there exists a simple n-gon P that induces A by extending every edge of P into a line. We prov...

the asteroid surveying problem and other puzzles
We consider two variants of the well-known “sailor in the fog” puzzle. The first version (the “asteroid surveying” problem) is set in three dimensions and asks for the sh...

On the exact computation of the topology of real algebraic curves
We consider the problem of computing a representation of the plane graph induced by one (or more) algebraic curves in the real plane. We make no assumptions about the curves, in p...
