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…

Most current results on coverage control using mobile sensors require that one partitioned cell is the sole responsibility of one sensor. In this paper, we consider a class of generalized Voronoi coverage control problems by using higher…

We present an edge labeling of order-$k$ Voronoi diagrams, $V_k(S)$, of point sets $S$ in the plane, and study properties of the regions defined by them. Among them, we show that $V_k(S)$ has a small orientable cycle and path double cover,…

Several systems involve spatial arrangements of elements such as molecules or cells, the characterization of which bears important implications to biological and physical investigations. Traditional approaches to quantify spatial order and…

Voronoi mosaics inspired by the seed points placed on the Archimedes Spirals are reported. Voronoi entropy was calculated for these patterns. Equidistant and non-equidistant patterns are treated. Voronoi mosaics built from cells of equal…

We enumerate the low dimensional cells in the Voronoi cell complexes attached to the modular groups $SL_N(Z)$ and $GL_N(Z)$ for $N=8,9,10,11$, using quotient sublattices techniques for $N=8,9$ and linear programming methods for higher…

It is well known that all cells of the Voronoi diagram of a Delaunay set are polytopes. For a finite point set, all these cells are still polyhedra. So the question arises, if this observation holds for all discrete point sets: Are always…

Irregular arrangements of vesicles filled with excitable and precipitating chemical systems are imitated by Voronoi automata --- finite-state machines defined on a planar Voronoi diagram. Every Voronoi cell takes four states: resting,…

We introduce a new class of spatial-temporal point processes based on Voronoi tessellations. At each step of such a process, a point is chosen at random according to a distribution determined by the associated Voronoi cells. The point is…
