On the structure and composition of forbidden sequences, with geometric applications
Forbidden substructure theorems have proved to be among of the most versatile tools in bounding the complexity of geometric objects and the running time of geometric algorithms. T...

Succinct representations of planar maps
This paper addresses the problem of representing the connectivity information of geometric objects using as little memory as possible. As opposed to raw compression issues, the fo...

Improved Results on Geometric Hitting Set Problems
We consider the problem of computing minimum geometric hitting sets in which, given a set of geometric objects and a set of points, the goal is to compute the smallest subset of p...

Data Structures for Range Aggregation by Categories
We solve instances of a general class of problems defined as follows: Preprocess a set S of possibly weighted colored geometric objects (e.g. points/orthogonal segments/rectangles...

Rendering and Simulation of Liquid Foams
In this paper we present a technique for rendering and simulating liquid foams in real time using GPUs [11, 12]. The goal is to have bubbles meeting physical properties when inter...

An Adaptable and Extensible Geometry Kernel
Geometric algorithms are based on geometric objects such as points, lines and circles. The term Kernel refers to a collection of representations for constant-size geometric objects...

On Planar Path Transformation
A flip or edge-replacement is considered as a transformation by which one edge e of a geometric object is removed and an edge f (f = e) is inserted such that the resulting object ...

Using Three-Valued Logic to Specify and Verify Algorithms of Computational Geometry
Many safety-critical systems deal with geometric objects. Reasoning about the correctness of such systems is mandatory and requires the use of basic definitions of geometry for th...

Colored intersection searching via sparse rectangular matrix multiplication
In a Batched Colored Intersection Searching Problem (CI), one is given a set of n geometric objects (of a certain class). Each object is colored by one of c colors, and the goal i...
