In this paper, we consider the following $k$-dispersion problem. Given a set $S$ of $n$ points placed in the plane in a convex position, and an integer $k$ ($0<k<n$), the objective is to compute a subset $S'\subset S$ such that $|S'|=k$ and…
We consider the Minimum Steiner Cut problem on undirected planar graphs with non-negative edge weights. This problem involves finding the minimum cut of the graph that separates a specified subset $X$ of vertices (terminals) into two parts.…
Flips in triangulations have received a lot of attention over the past decades. However, the problem of tracking where particular edges go during the flipping process has not been addressed. We examine this question by attaching unique…
The article proposes a new method for finding the triangle-triangle intersection in 3D space, based on the use of computer graphics algorithms -- cutting off segments on the plane when moving and rotating the beginning of the coordinate…
We consider the problem of computing Shapley values for points in the plane, where each point is interpreted as a player, and the value of a coalition is defined by the area of usual geometric objects, such as the convex hull or the minimum…
While well-known methods to list the intersections of either a list of segments or a complex polygon aim at achieving optimal time-complexity they often do so at the cost of memory comsumption and complex code. Real-life software…
Let G be a graph that may be drawn in the plane in such a way that all internal faces are centrally symmetric convex polygons. We show how to find a drawing of this type that maximizes the angular resolution of the drawing, the minimum…
A constant-workspace algorithm has read-only access to an input array and may use only O(1) additional words of $O(\log n)$ bits, where $n$ is the size of the input. We assume that a simple $n$-gon is given by the ordered sequence of its…

We consider a variant of two-point Euclidean shortest path query problem: given a polygonal domain, build a data structure for two-point shortest path query, provided that query points always lie on the boundary of the domain. As a main…
Let $X$ be a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $\mathcal{O}$ be a set of geometric objects in $\mathbb{R}^2$, where $|X| + |\mathcal{O}| = n$. We study the problem of computing a minimum subset $\mathcal{O}^* \subseteq \mathcal{O}$ that…
We present an algorithm to find an {\it Euclidean Shortest Path} from a source vertex $s$ to a sink vertex $t$ in the presence of obstacles in $\Re^2$. Our algorithm takes $O(T+m(\lg{m})(\lg{n}))$ time and $O(n)$ space. Here, $O(T)$ is the…
We study the problem of partitioning a polygon into the minimum number of subpolygons using cuts in predetermined directions such that each resulting subpolygon satisfies a given width constraint. A polygon satisfies the unit-width…
We provide a linear time algorithm to determine the flip distance between two plane spanning paths on a point set in convex position. At the same time, we show that the happy edge property does not hold in this setting. This has to be seen…
The problem of finding "small" sets that meet every straight-line which intersects a given convex region was initiated by Mazurkiewicz in 1916. We call such a set an {\em opaque set} or a {\em barrier} for that region. We consider the…
An interesting problem that determine a triangle of smallest area which circumscribes a semicircle is solved. Then a generalized golden right triangles sequence $T_n$ is obtained, and an interesting construction of the maximum generalized…
