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…

We present an objective and automated procedure for detecting clusters of galaxies in imaging galaxy surveys. Our Voronoi Galaxy Cluster Finder (VGCF) uses galaxy positions and magnitudes to find clusters and determine their main features:…

Recently, the construction of 2D empirical wavelets based on partitioning the Fourier domain with the watershed transform has been proposed. If such approach can build partitions of completely arbitrary shapes, for some applications, it is…

We propose an automated method for detecting galaxy clusters in imaging surveys based on the Voronoi tessellation technique. It appears very promising, expecially for its capability of detecting clusters indipendently from their shape.…

In this study the Voronoi interpolation is used to interpolate a set of points drawn from a topological space with higher homology groups on its filtration. The technique is based on Voronoi tessellation, which induces a natural dual map to…

Under the assumption of a void-filled Universe we investigate if the characteristic scale of voids can be determined from existing surveys. We use the Voronoi tessellation to create mock surveys and study the properties of the first…

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 this work we present an alternative method to obtain a distribution of particles over an hyper surface, such that they obey a rest-mass density distribution $\rho(x^i)$. We use density profiles that can be written as…

The size distributions of 2D and 3D Voronoi cells and of cells of $V_p(2,3)$,--2D cut of 3D Voronoi diagram--are explored, with the single-parameter (re-scaled) gamma distribution playing a central role in the analytical fitting.…

We consider the Voronoi tessellation associated to a stationary simple point process on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with finite and positive intensity. We introduce the Delaunay triangulation as its dual graph, i.e.~the graph with vertex set given by…

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…

The voids between galaxies are identified with the volumes of the Poisson Voronoi tessellation. Two new survival functions for the apparent radii of voids are derived. The sectional normalized area of the Poisson Voronoi tessellation is…

We consider the Voronoi tessellation based on a homogeneous Poisson point process in $\mathbf{R}^{d}$. For a geometric characteristic of the cells (e.g. the inradius, the circumradius, the volume), we investigate the point process of the…
