We establish a bound of $O(n^2k^{1+\eps})$, for any $\eps>0$, on the combinatorial complexity of the set $\T$ of line transversals of a collection $\P$ of $k$ convex polyhedra in $\reals^3$ with a total of $n$ facets, and present a…
In the Hausdorff Voronoi diagram of a set of clusters of points in the plane, the distance between a point t and a cluster P is the maximum Euclidean distance between t and a point in P. This diagram has direct applications in VLSI design.…
We give lower bounds for the combinatorial complexity of the Voronoi diagram of polygonal curves under the discrete Frechet distance. We show that the Voronoi diagram of n curves in R^d with k vertices each, has complexity Omega(n^{dk}) for…
We present an extension of Voronoi diagrams where when considering which site a client is going to use, in addition to the site distances, other site attributes are also considered (for example, prices or weights). A cell in this diagram is…
The Hilbert metric is a distance function defined for points lying within a convex body. It generalizes the Cayley-Klein model of hyperbolic geometry to any convex set, and it has numerous applications in the analysis and processing of…
We investigate higher-order Voronoi diagrams in the city metric. This metric is induced by quickest paths in the L1 metric in the presence of an accelerating transportation network of axis-parallel line segments. For the structural…
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…

We consider combinatorial problems that can be solved in polynomial time for graphs of bounded treewidth but where the order of the polynomial that bounds the running time is expected to depend on the treewidth bound. First we review some…
