On the Number of Empty Pseudo-Triangles in Point Sets
We analyze the minimum and maximum number of empty pseudo-triangles defined by any planar point set. We consider the cases where the three convex vertices are fixed and where th...

A Note on Drawing Direction-constrained Paths in 3D
We study the problem of drawing a graph-theoretic path where each edge is assigned an axis-parallel direction in 3D. Di Battista et al.[3] gives a combinatorial characterization f...

Fast Computation of Smallest Enclosing Circle with Center on a Query Line Segment
Here we propose an efficient algorithm for computing the smallest enclosing circle whose center is constrained to lie on a query line segment. Our algorithm preprocesses a given s...

Hamilton Circuits in Hexagonal Grid Graphs
We look at a variant of the Hamilton circuit problem, where the input is restricted to hexagonal grid graphs. A hexagonal grid graph has a vertex set that is a subset of the grid ...

Approximation Algorithms for the Minimum-Length Corridor and Related Problems
Given a rectangular boundary partitioned into rectangles, the MLC-R problem is to find a Minimum EdgeLength Corridor that visits at least one point from the boundary of every rec...

Medial Axis Approximation of Planar Shapes from Union of Balls: A Simpler and more Robust Algorithm
Given a dense sampling S of the smooth boundary of a planar shape O. We show that the medial axis of the union of Voronoi balls centered at Voronoi vertices inside O has a particu...

Straight-line Drawings of Outerplanar Graphs in O(dn log n) Area
We show an algorithm for constructing O(dn log n) area outerplanar straight-line drawings of n-vertex outerplanar graphs with degree d. Also, we settle in the negative a conjectur...

Computing Acute and Non-obtuse Triangulations
We propose a method for computing acute (non-obtuse) triangulations. That is, for a given two dimensional domain (a set of points or a planar straight line graph), we compute a tr...
