We present an algorithm for calculating the geometric intersection number of two multicurves on the $n$-punctured disk, taking as input their Dynnikov coordinates. The algorithm has complexity $O(m^2n^4)$, where $m$ is the sum of the…

In this paper, we study the many-to-many matching problem on planar point sets with integer coordinates: Given two disjoint sets $R,B \subset [\Delta]^2$ with $|R|+|B|=n$, the goal is to select a set of edges between $R$ and $B$ so that…

A curve in the plane is $x$-monotone if every vertical line intersects it at most once. A family of curves are called pseudo-segments if every pair of them have at most one point in common. We construct $2^{\Omega(n^{4/3})}$ families, each…

Given a set of objects $O$ in the plane, the corresponding intersection graph is defined as follows. Each object defines a vertex and an edge joins two vertices whenever the corresponding objects intersect. We study here the case of unit…

Line intersection with convex and un-convex polygons or polyhedron algorithms are well known as line clipping algorithms and very often used in computer graphics. Rendering of geometrical problems often leads to ray tracing techniques, when…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a set of straight lines in the plane (or planes in $\mathbb{R}^3$). The $k$-crossing visibility of a point $p$ on $\mathcal{A}$ is the set $Q$ of points in the elements of $\mathcal{A}$ such that the segment $pq$, where…
