We study the computational model of polygraphs. For that, we consider polygraphic programs, a subclass of these objects, as a formal description of first-order functional programs. We explain their semantics and prove that they form a…
Writing an uncomplicated, robust, and scalable three-dimensional convex hull algorithm is challenging and problematic. This includes, coplanar and collinear issues, numerical accuracy, performance, and complexity trade-offs. While there are…
We combine the idea of confluent drawings with Sugiyama style drawings, in order to reduce the edge crossings in the resultant drawings. Furthermore, it is easier to understand the structures of graphs from the mixed style drawings. The…
This paper presents Polylidar, an efficient algorithm to extract non-convex polygons from 2D point sets, including interior holes. Plane segmented point clouds can be input into Polylidar to extract their polygonal counterpart, thereby…
Information visualization is essential in making sense out of large data sets. Often, high-dimensional data are visualized as a collection of points in 2-dimensional space through dimensionality reduction techniques. However, these…
In this paper, we introduce a new approach for drawing diagrams that have applications in software visualization. Our approach is to use a technique we call confluent drawing for visualizing non-planar diagrams in a planar way. This…
The notions of convexity and convex polytopes are introduced in the setting of tropical geometry. Combinatorial types of tropical polytopes are shown to be in bijection with regular triangulations of products of two simplices. Applications…
We show that a nontrivial graph isomorphism problem of two undirected graphs, and more generally, the permutation similarity of two given $n\times n$ matrices, is equivalent to equalities of volumes of the induced three convex bounded…
We consider the problem of approximating a two-dimensional shape contour (or curve segment) using discrete assembly systems, which allow to build geometric structures based on limited sets of node and edge types subject to edge length and…
Graph drawing research traditionally focuses on producing geometric embeddings of graphs satisfying various aesthetic constraints. After the geometric embedding is specified, there is an additional step that is often overlooked or ignored:…
We introduce fractional realizations of a graph degree sequence and a closely associated convex polytope. Simple graph realizations correspond to a subset of the vertices of this polytope. We describe properties of the polytope vertices and…
In this work, we study the computability of topological graphs, which are obtained by gluing arcs and rays together at their endpoints. We prove that every semicomputable graph in a computable metric space can be approximated, with…
We investigate the combinatorics and geometry of permutation polytopes associated to cyclic permutation groups, i.e., the convex hulls of cyclic groups of permutation matrices. We give formulas for their dimension and vertex degree. In the…
In this paper we develop a combinatorial abstraction of tropical linear programming. This generalizes the search for a feasible point of a system of min-plus-inequalities. It is based on the polyhedral properties of triangulations of the…
Metric spaces defined within convex polygons, such as the Thompson, Funk, reverse Funk, and Hilbert metrics, are subjects of recent exploration and study in computational geometry. This paper contributes an educational piece of software for…
This work presents the Polynomiogram framework, an integrated computational platform for exploring, visualizing, and generating art from polynomial root systems. The main innovation is a flexible sampling scheme in which two independent…
We propose a combinatorial method for computing explicit solutions to multi-parametric quadratic programs, which can be used to compute explicit control laws for linear model predictive control. In contrast to classical methods, which are…
The degree partition of a simple graph is its degree sequence rearranged in weakly decreasing order. The polytope of degree partitions (respectively, degree sequences) is the convex hull of all degree partitions (respectively, degree…
Using a notation of corner between edges when graph has a fixed rotation, i.e. cyclical order of edges around vertices, we define combinatorial objects - combinatorial maps as pairs of permutations, one for vertices and one for faces.…
In our previous paper, Real Polynomials with a Complex Twist [see http://archives.math.utk.edu/ICTCM/VOL28/A040/paper.pdf], we used advancements in computer graphics that allow us to easily illustrate more complete graphs of polynomial…
