A roundtrip spanner of a directed graph $G$ is a subgraph of $G$ preserving roundtrip distances approximately for all pairs of vertices. Despite extensive research, there is still a small stretch gap between roundtrip spanners in directed…

Delaunay has shown that the Delaunay complex of a finite set of points $P$ of Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^m$ triangulates the convex hull of $P$, provided that $P$ satisfies a mild genericity property. Voronoi diagrams and Delaunay…

For any finite, simple graph $G = (V,E)$, its $2$-distance graph $G_2$ is a graph having the same vertex set $V$ where two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance is $2$ in $G$. Connectivity and diameter properties of these…

Let $G$ be a simple connected simple graph of order $n$. The distance Laplacian matrix $D^{L}(G)$ is defined as $D^L(G)=Diag(Tr)-D(G)$, where $Diag(Tr)$ is the diagonal matrix of vertex transmissions and $D(G)$ is the distance matrix of…

We study Voronoi diagrams for distance functions that add together two convex functions, each taking as its argument the difference between Cartesian coordinates of two planar points. When the functions do not grow too quickly, then the…

We show how a filtration of Delaunay complexes can be used to approximate the persistence diagram of the distance to a point set in $R^d$. Whereas the full Delaunay complex can be used to compute this persistence diagram exactly, it may…

The directed landscape is a random directed metric on the plane that arises as the scaling limit of metric models in the KPZ universality class. For a pair of points p, q, the disjointness gap G(p; q) measures the shortfall when we optimize…

Finding the exact spanning ratio of a Delaunay graph has been one of the longstanding open problems in Computational Geometry. Currently there are only four convex shapes for which the exact spanning ratio of their Delaunay graph is known:…

In 2022 Kim showed when a graph $G$ is ternary (without induced cycles of length divisible by three), its independence complex $\text{Ind}(G)$ is either contractible or homotopy equivalent to a sphere. In this paper, we show that when…

A rectangular drawing of a planar graph $G$ is a planar drawing of $G$ in which vertices are mapped to grid points, edges are mapped to horizontal and vertical straight-line segments, and faces are drawn as rectangles. Sometimes this latter…

The $t$-onion star is the digraph obtained from a star with $2t$ leaves by replacing every edge by a triple of arcs, where in $t$ triples we orient two arcs away from the center, and in the remaining $t$ triples we orient two arcs towards…
