    Notes: Abstract High-performance rendering engines are often pipelined; their speed is bounded by the rate at which triangulation data can be sent into the machine. An ordering such that consecutive triangles share a face, which reduces the data rate, exists if and only if the dual graph of the triangulation contains a Hamiltonian path. We (1) show thatany set ofn points in the plane has a Hamiltonian triangulation; (2) prove that certain nondegenerate point sets do not admit asequential triangulation; (3) test whether a polygonP has a Hamiltonian triangulation in time linear in the size of its visibility graph; and (4) show how to add Steiner points to a triangulation to create Hamiltonian triangulations that avoid narrow angles.

    Notes: Abstract We present an algorithm for computingL 1 shortest paths among polygonal obstacles in the plane. Our algorithm employs the “continuous Dijkstra” technique of propagating a “wavefront” and runs in timeO(E logn) and spaceO(E), wheren is the number of vertices of the obstacles andE is the number of “events.” By using bounds on the density of certain sparse binary matrices, we show thatE =O(n logn), implying that our algorithm is nearly optimal. We conjecture thatE =O(n), which would imply our algorithm to be optimal. Previous bounds for our problem were quadratic in time and space. Our algorithm generalizes to the case of fixed orientation metrics, yielding anO(nɛ−1/2 log2 n) time andO(nɛ−1/2) space approximation algorithm for finding Euclidean shortest paths among obstacles. The algorithm further generalizes to the case of many sources, allowing us to compute anL 1 Voronoi diagram for source points that lie among a collection of polygonal obstacles.

    Notes: Abstract Given a set of nonintersecting polygonal obstacles in the plane, thelink distance between two pointss andt is the minimum number of edges required to form a polygonal path connectings tot that avoids all obstacles. We present an algorithm that computes the link distance (and a corresponding minimum-link path) between two points in timeO(Eα(n) log2 n) (and spaceO(E)), wheren is the total number of edges of the obstacles,E is the size of the visibility graph, and α(n) denotes the extremely slowly growing inverse of Ackermann's function. We show how to extend our method to allow computation of a tree (rooted ats) of minimum-link paths froms to all obstacle vertices. This leads to a method of solving the query version of our problem (for query pointst).

    Notes: Abstract We study a variety of geometric versions of the classical knapsack problem. In particular, we consider the following “fence enclosure” problem: given a setS ofn points in the plane with valuesv i ≥ 0, we wish to enclose a subset of the points with a fence (a simple closed curve) in order to maximize the “value” of the enclosure. The value of the enclosure is defined to be the sum of the values of the enclosed points minus the cost of the fence. We consider various versions of the problem, such as allowingS to consist of points and/or simple polygons. Other versions of the problems are obtained by restricting the total amount of fence available and also allowing the enclosure to consist of at mostM connected components. When there is an upper bound on the length of fence available, we show that the problem is NP-complete. We also provide polynomial-time algorithms for many versions of the fence problem when an unrestricted amount of fence is available.

    Notes: Abstract We consider maximumb-matching problems where the nodes of the graph represent points in a metric space, and the weight of an edge is the distance between the respective pair of points. We show that if the space is either the rectilinear plane, or the metric space induced by a tree network, then theb-matching problem is the dual of the (single) median location problem with respect to the given set of points. This result does not hold for the Euclidean plane. However, we show that in this case theb-matching problem is the dual of a median location problem with respect to the given set of points, in some extended metric space. We then extend this latter result to any geodesic metric in the plane. The above results imply that the respective fractionalb-matching problems have integer optimal solutions. We use these duality results to prove the nonemptiness of the core of a cooperative game defined on the roommate problem corresponding to the above matching model. © 1998 The Mathematical Programming Society, Inc.

    Notes: Abstract We introduce a new algorithm for computing Euclidean shortest paths in the plane in the presence of polygonal obstacles. In particular, for a given start points, we build a planar subdivision (ashortest path map) that supports efficient queries for shortest paths froms to any destination pointt. The worst-case time complexity of our algorithm isO(kn log2 n), wheren is the number of vertices describing the polygonal obstacles, andk is a parameter we call the “illumination depth” of the obstacle space. Our algorithm usesO(n) space, avoiding the possibly quadratic space complexity of methods that rely on visibility graphs. The quantityk is frequently significantly smaller thann, especially in some of the cases in which the visibility graph has quadratic size. In particular,k is bounded above by the number of different obstacles that touch any shortest path froms.
