The Circle Packing Theorem states that every planar graph can be represented as the tangency graph of a family of internally-disjoint circles. A well-known generalization is the Primal-Dual Circle Packing Theorem for 3-connected planar…
An exact conservative remapping scheme requires overlaps between two meshes and a reconstruction scheme on the old cells (Lagrangian mesh). While the are intensive discussion on reconstruction schemes, there are relative sparse discussion…

(I) We prove that the (maximum) number of monotone paths in a geometric triangulation of $n$ points in the plane is $O(1.7864^n)$. This improves an earlier upper bound of $O(1.8393^n)$; the current best lower bound is $\Omega(1.7003^n)$.…
We study the problem of assigning non-overlapping geometric objects centered at a given set of points such that the sum of area covered by them is maximized. If the points are placed on a straight-line and the objects are disks, then the…
A small polygon is a convex polygon of unit diameter. We are interested in small polygons which have the largest area for a given number of vertices $n$. Many instances are already solved in the literature, namely for all odd $n$, and for…
Given a convex $n$-gon $P$ and a positive integer $m$ such that $3\le m\le n-1$, let $Q$ denote the largest area convex $m$-gon contained in $P$. We are interested in the minimum value of $\Delta(Q)/\Delta(P)$, the ratio of the areas of…

We study the Maximum Bipartite Subgraph (MBS) problem, which is defined as follows. Given a set $S$ of $n$ geometric objects in the plane, we want to compute a maximum-size subset $S'\subseteq S$ such that the intersection graph of the…
Navigating rigid body objects through crowded environments can be challenging, especially when narrow passages are presented. Existing sampling-based planners and optimization-based methods like mixed integer linear programming (MILP)…
We discuss the problem of embedding graphs in the plane with restrictions on the vertex mapping. In particular, we introduce a technique for drawing planar graphs with a fixed vertex mapping that bounds the number of times edges bend. An…
LSP(n), the largest small polygon with n vertices, is the polygon of unit diameter that has maximal area A(n). It is known that for all odd values $n \geq 3$, LSP(n) is the regular n-polygon; however, this statement is not valid for even…
Interior point methods for solving linearly constrained convex programming involve a variable projection matrix at each iteration to deal with the linear constraints. This matrix often becomes ill-conditioned near the boundary of the…
Given a graph $G$, the NP-hard Maximum Planar Subgraph problem (MPS) asks for a planar subgraph of $G$ with the maximum number of edges. There are several heuristic, approximative, and exact algorithms to tackle the problem, but---to the…
