We are interested in Voronoi diagrams as a tool in robot path planning, where the search for a path in an r-dimensional space may be simplified to a search on an (r- l)-dimensional...
We devise techniques to manipulate a collection of loosely interpenetrating spheres in threedimensional space. Our study is motivated by the representation and manipulation of mol...
Given a simple polygon in the plane with two distinguished vertices, s and g, is it possible for two guards to simultaneously walk along the two boundary chains from s to g in suc...
We describe methods for triangulating polygonal regions of the plane so that no triangle has a large angle. Our main result is that a polygon with n sides can be triangulated with...
We present a new pivot-based algorithm which can be used with minor modification for the enumeration of the facets of the convex hull of a set of points, or for the enumeration o...
Given a set of points in the plane, a crossing family is a collection of line segments, each joining two of the points, such that any two line segments intersect internally. Two s...
We provide new combinatorial bounds on the complexity of a face in an arrangement of segments in the plane. In particular, we show that the complexity of a single face in an arran...

We present a simple but powerful new probabilistic technique for analyzing the combinatorial complexity of various substructures in arrangements of piecewise-linear surfaces in hig...
