Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in general position in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The order-$k$ Voronoi diagram of $S$, $V_k(S)$, is a subdivision of $\mathbb{R}^d$ into cells whose points have the same $k$ nearest points of $S$. Sibson, in his seminal…

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 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…

Consider a pair of plane straight-line graphs, whose edges are colored red and blue, respectively, and let n be the total complexity of both graphs. We present a O(n log n)-time O(n)-space technique to preprocess such pair of graphs, that…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph with unit-length edges and nonnegative costs assigned to its vertices. Being given a list of pairwise different vertices $S=(s_1,s_2,\ldots,s_p)$, the {\em prioritized Voronoi diagram} of $G$ with respect to $S$ is…

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…
