For an integer $k\geq 1$, the objective of \textsc{$k$-Geodesic Center} is to find a set $\mathcal{C}$ of $k$ isometric paths such that the maximum distance between any vertex $v$ and $\mathcal{C}$ is minimised. Introduced by Gromov,…

Given a polygon $P$, for two points $s$ and $t$ contained in the polygon, their \emph{geodesic distance} is the length of the shortest $st$-path within $P$. A \emph{geodesic disk} of radius $r$ centered at a point $v \in P$ is the set of…
