In this paper, we studied the equilibrium problem where the bi-function may be quasiconvex with respect to the second variable and the feasible set is the intersection of a finite number of convex sets. We propose a projection-algorithm,…

We consider the planar two-center problem for a convex polygon: given a convex polygon in the plane, find two congruent disks of minimum radius whose union contains the polygon. We present an $O(n\log n)$-time algorithm for the two-center…

Every polygon $P$ can be companioned by a cap polygon $\hat P$ such that $P$ and $\hat P$ serve as two parts of the boundary surface of a polyhedron $V$. Pairs of vertices on $P$ and $\hat P$ are identified successively to become vertices…

There is a very extensive literature dealing with convex polytopes from the standpoints of combinatorics and numerical analysis. By contrast, the current paper adopts an alternative viewpoint that regards a polytope as an autonomous space…
