We introduce the inverse Voronoi diagram problem in graphs: given a graph $G$ with positive edge-lengths and a collection $\mathbb{U}$ of subsets of vertices of $V(G)$, decide whether $\mathbb{U}$ is a Voronoi diagram in $G$ with respect to…

A Voronoi diagram partitions the plane into convex cells, each containing the points closest to a single generator. Given such a tessellation, the inverse Voronoi problem seeks the generator set \( S \) that produced it. Our algorithm…

We describe a new algorithm for computing the Voronoi diagram of a set of $n$ points in constant-dimensional Euclidean space. The running time of our algorithm is $O(f \log n \log \Delta)$ where $f$ is the output complexity of the Voronoi…

The classic Voronoi cells can be generalized to a higher-order version by considering the cells of points for which a given $k$-element subset of the set of sites consists of the $k$ closest sites. We study the structure of the $k$-order…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be an $\mathcal{H}$-polytope in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with vertex set $V$. The vertex centroid is defined as the average of the vertices in $V$. We prove that computing the vertex centroid of an $\mathcal{H}$-polytope is #P-hard.…
