Polynomial-Size Nonobtuse Triangulation of Polygons
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...

Finding the Shortest Watchman Route in a Simple Polygon
We present the first polynomial time algorithm that finds the shortest route in a simple polygon such that all points of the polygon are visible from the route. This route is cal...

Visibility Graphs and Oriented Matroids
We describe a set of necessary conditions for a given graph to be the visibility graph of a simple polygon. For every graph satisfying these conditions we show that a uniform rank ...

Short and Smooth Polygonal Paths
Abstract. Automatic graph drawers need to compute paths among vertices of a simple polygon which besides remaining in the interior need to exhibit certain aesthetic properties. Som...

Where to Build a Door
— A room is a simple polygon with a prespecified point, called the door, on its boundary. Search starts at the door, and must detect any intruder that may be in the room, while ...

Decomposing a Simple Polygon into Trapezoids
Chazelle’s triangulation [1] forms today the common basis for linear-time Euclidean shortest path (ESP) calculations (where start and end point are given within a simple polygon)...
