We prove that Y_6 is a spanner. Y_6 is the Yao graph on a set of planar points, which has an edge from each point x to a closest point y within each of the six angular cones of 60 deg surrounding x.
Given a set of points in the plane, we show that the $\theta$-graph with 5 cones is a geometric spanner with spanning ratio at most $\sqrt{50 + 22 \sqrt{5}} \approx 9.960$. This is the first constant upper bound on the spanning ratio of…
Given a finite set $P\subset\mathbb{R}^2$, the directed Theta-6 graph, denoted $\vec{\Theta}_6(P)$, is a well-studied geometric graph due to its close relationship with the Delaunay triangulation. The $\vec{\Theta}_6(P)$-graph is defined as…
We study the spanning properties of Theta-Theta graphs. Similar in spirit with the Yao-Yao graphs, Theta-Theta graphs partition the space around each vertex into a set of k cones, for some fixed integer k > 1, and select at most one edge…
We present improved upper bounds on the spanning ratio of constrained $\theta$-graphs with at least 6 cones and constrained Yao-graphs with 5 or at least 7 cones. Given a set of points in the plane, a Yao-graph partitions the plane around…
In this paper, we introduce a variation of the well-studied Yao graphs. Given a set of points $S\subset \mathbb{R}^2$ and an angle $0 < \theta \leq 2\pi$, we define the continuous Yao graph $cY(\theta)$ with vertex set $S$ and angle…
In this paper we prove that $Y_5$, the Yao graph with five cones, is a spanner with stretch factor $\rho = 2+\sqrt{3} \approx 3.74$. Since $Y_5$ is the only Yao graph whose status of being a spanner or not was open, this completes the…
For a set of points in the plane and a fixed integer $k > 0$, the Yao graph $Y_k$ partitions the space around each point into $k$ equiangular cones of angle $\theta=2\pi/k$, and connects each point to a nearest neighbor in each cone. It is…
In this paper we show that the \theta-graph with 4 cones has constant stretch factor, i.e., there is a path between any pair of vertices in this graph whose length is at most a constant times the Euclidean distance between that pair of…
We present improved upper and lower bounds on the spanning ratio of $\theta$-graphs with at least six cones. Given a set of points in the plane, a $\theta$-graph partitions the plane around each vertex into $m$ disjoint cones, each having…
We present sweeping line graphs, a generalization of $\Theta$-graphs. We show that these graphs are spanners of the complete graph, as well as of the visibility graph when line segment constraints or polygonal obstacles are considered. Our…
We show an upper bound of $\frac{ \sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{10}\right) }{ \sin\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right)-\sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{10}\right) } <5.70$ on the spanning ratio of $\Theta_5$-graphs, improving on the previous best known upper bound of…
In this paper, we show that the $\theta$-graph with three cones is connected. We also provide an alternative proof of the connectivity of the Yao graph with three cones.
We show that, for any integer k > 5, the Sparse-Yao graph YY_{6k} (also known as Yao-Yao) is a spanner with stretch factor 11.67. The stretch factor drops down to 4.75 for k > 7.
Let $P$ be a finite set of points in the plane and $S$ a set of non-crossing line segments with endpoints in $P$. The visibility graph of $P$ with respect to $S$, denoted $Vis(P,S)$, has vertex set $P$ and an edge for each pair of vertices…
There are two particular $\Theta_6$-graphs - the 6-cycle graphs with a diagonal. We find the planar Tur\'an number of each of them, i.e. the maximum number of edges in a planar graph $G$ of $n$ vertices not containing the given $\Theta_6$…
In this thesis, we study two different graph problems. The first problem revolves around geometric spanners. Here, we have a set of points in the plane and we want to connect them with straight line segments, such that there is a path…
We present tight bounds on the spanning ratio of a large family of ordered $\theta$-graphs. A $\theta$-graph partitions the plane around each vertex into $m$ disjoint cones, each having aperture $\theta = 2 \pi/m$. An ordered $\theta$-graph…
It is an open problem whether Yao-Yao graphs $\mathsf{YY}_k$ (also known as sparse-Yao graphs) are all spanners when the integer parameter $k$ is large enough. In this paper we show that, for any integer $k\geq 42$, the Yao-Yao graph…
Let $\psi$ be the period map for a family of the cyclic triple coverings of the complex projective line branching at six points. The symmetric group $S_6$ acts on this family and on its image under $\psi.$ In this paper, we give an…
