Producing circle patterns via configurations

Geometric Topology 2021-05-13 v9

Abstract

This paper studies circle patterns from the viewpoint of configurations. By using the topological degree theory, we extend the Koebe-Andreev-Thurston Theorem to include circle patterns with obtuse exterior intersection angles. As a consequence, we obtain a generalized Andreev's Theorem which allows obtuse dihedral angles.
