Given a Morse function over a 2-manifold with or without boundary, the Reeb graph is obtained by contracting the connected components of the level sets to points. We prove tight u...

We address the problem of curvature estimation from sampled smooth surfaces. Building upon the theory of normal cycles, we derive a definition of the curvature tensor for polyhed...
We present an algorithm to reconstruct a collection of disjoint smooth closed curves from noisy samples. Our noise model assumes that the samples are obtained by first drawing po...

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...

Let τK be the worst-case (supremum) ratio of the weight of the minimum degree-K spanning tree to the weight of the minimum spanning tree, over all finite point sets in the Eu
Docking is the process by which two or several molecules form a complex. Docking involves the geometry of the molecular surfaces, as well as chemical and energetical consideration...
We show how to construct an arrangement of n lines having a monotone path of length Ω(n2−(d/ √ log n)), where d > 0 is some constant, and thus nearly settle the long stan...
