Patterns on the Connected Components of Terabyte-Scale Graphs
How do connected components evolve? What are the regularities that govern the dynamic growth process and the static snapshot of the connected components? In this work, we study pat...

Transversals to line segments in R3
We completely describe the structure of the connected components of transversals to a collection of n arbitrary line segments in R3 . We show that n 3 line segments in R3 admit 0,...

On the number of line tangents to four triangles in three-dimensional space
We establish upper and lower bounds on the number of connected components of lines tangent to four triangles in R3 . We show that four triangles in R3 may admit at least 88 tangent...

Between umbra and penumbra
Computing shadow boundaries is a difficult problem in the case of non-point light sources. A point is in the umbra if it does not see any part of any light source; it is in full l...
