We study the geometry and complexity of Voronoi cells of lattices with respect to arbitrary norms. On the positive side, we show for strictly convex and smooth norms that the geometry of Voronoi cells of lattices in any dimension is similar…
We present an algorithm for the exact computer-aided construction of the Voronoi cells of lattices with known symmetry group. Our algorithm scales better than linearly with the total number of faces and is applicable to dimensions beyond…
The simple cubic lattice defines a set of points at regular distances. The volume of the Voronoi cells around each point may serve as a weight for integration over the entire space. We add interstitial points to this grid according to the…
Every real algebraic variety determines a Voronoi decomposition of its ambient Euclidean space. Each Voronoi cell is a convex semialgebraic set in the normal space of the variety at a point. We compute the algebraic boundaries of these…
In a seminal work, Micciancio & Voulgaris (2013) described a deterministic single-exponential time algorithm for the Closest Vector Problem (CVP) on lattices. It is based on the computation of the Voronoi cell of the given lattice and thus…
In this note we give a polynomial time algorithm for solving the closest vector problem in the class of zonotopal lattices. The Voronoi cell of a zonotopal lattice is a zonotope, i.e. a projection of a regular cube. Examples of zonotopal…
Voronoi and related diagrams have technological applications, for example, in motion planning and surface reconstruction, and also find significant use in materials science, molecular biology, and crystallography. Apollonius diagrams…
This article presents an algorithm to compute digital images of Voronoi, Johnson-Mehl or Laguerre diagrams of a set of punctual sites, in a domain of a Euclidean space of any dimension. The principle of the algorithm is, in a first step, to…
A Voronoi diagram is a basic geometric structure that partitions the space into regions associated with a given set of sites, such that all points in a region are closer to the corresponding site than to all other sites. While being…
We describe algorithms which address two classical problems in lattice geometry: the lattice covering and the simultaneous lattice packing-covering problem. Theoretically our algorithms solve the two problems in any fixed dimension d in the…
A polyhedral norm is a norm N on R^n for which the set N(x)\leq 1 is a polytope. This covers the case of the L^1 and L^{\infty} norms. We consider here effective algorithms for determining the Voronoi polytope for such norms with a point…
We present an adaptation of Voronoi theory for imaginary quadratic number fields of class number greater than 1. This includes a characterisation of extreme Hermitian forms which is analogous to the classic characterisation of extreme…
Many polytopes arising in polyhedral combinatorics are linear projections of higher-dimensional polytopes with significantly fewer facets. Such lifts may yield compressed representations of polytopes, which are typically used to construct…
We consider the root lattice $A_n$ and derive explicit formulae for the moments of its Voronoi cell. We then show that these formulae enable accurate prediction of the error probability of lattice codes constructed from $A_n$.
Voronoi tessellations are used to partition the Euclidean space into polyhedral regions, which are called Voronoi cells. Labeling the Voronoi cells with the class information, we can map any classification problem into a Voronoi…
The Voronoi cell of any atom in a lattice is identical. If atoms are perturbed from their lattice coordinates, then the topologies of the Voronoi cells of the atoms will change. We consider the distribution of Voronoi cell topologies in…
We study Voronoi cells in the statistical setting by considering preimages of the maximum likelihood estimator that tessellate an open probability simplex. In general, logarithmic Voronoi cells are convex sets. However, for certain…

We present a simple wavefront-like approach for computing multiplicatively weighted Voronoi diagrams of points and straight-line segments in the Euclidean plane. If the input sites may be assumed to be randomly weighted points then the use…
We study Voronoi diagrams of manifolds and varieties with respect to polyhedral norms. We provide upper and lower bounds on the dimensions of Voronoi cells. For algebraic varieties, we count their full-dimensional Voronoi cells. As an…
