Discrete conformal mappings based on circle packing, vertex scaling, and related structures has had significant activity since Thurston proposed circle packing as a way to approximate conformal maps in the 1980s. The first convergence…
The traditional Riemann Mapping Theorem can be proved with circle packing techniques. We prove the Combinatorial Riemann Mapping Theorem for tilings of bounded size using circle packings.
Thurston's circle packing approximation of the Riemann Mapping (proven to give the Riemann Mapping in the limit by Rodin-Sullivan) is largely based on the theorem that any topological disk with a circle packing metric can be deformed into a…
A classic result of Brooks, Smith, Stone and Tutte associates to any finite planar network with distinguished source and sink vertices, a tiling of a rectangle by smaller subrectangles whose aspect ratios are given by the conductances of…
The paper proves a result on the convergence of discrete conformal maps to the Riemann mappings for Jordan domains. It is a counterpart of Rodin-Sullivan's theorem on convergence of circle packing mappings to the Riemann mapping in the new…
The main purpose of this article is to demonstrate three techniques for proving algebraicity statements about circle packings. We give proofs of three related theorems: (1) that every finite simple planar graph is the contact graph of a…
Let $\Omega \subseteq {\bf R}^d$ be an open set of measure 1. An open set $D \subseteq {\bf R}^d$ is called a ``tight orthogonal packing region'' for $\Omega$ if $D-D$ does not intersect the zeros of the Fourier Transform of the indicator…
Random tilings or packings in the plane are characterized by a size distribution of individual elements (domains) and by the statistics of neighbor relations between the domains. Most systems occurring in nature or technology have a…
Two planar embedded circle patterns with the same combinatorics and the same intersection angles can be considered to define a discrete conformal map. We show that two locally finite circle patterns covering the unit disc are related by a…
We give a new proof that the Poisson boundary of a planar graph coincides with the boundary of its square tiling and with the boundary of its circle packing, originally proven by Georgakopoulos and Angel, Barlow, Gurel-Gurevich and Nachmias…
Polyhedral circle packings are generalizations of the Apollonian packing. We develop the theory of the Apollonian group, Descartes quadratic form, and related objects for all polyhedral packings. We use these tools to determine the domain…
Roughly, a conformal tiling of a Riemann surface is a tiling where each tile is a suitable conformal image of a Euclidean regular polygon. In 1997, Bowers and Stephenson constructed an edge-to-edge conformal tiling of the complex plane…
A Sierpi\'nski packing in the $2$-sphere is a countable collection of disjoint, non-separating continua with diameters shrinking to zero. We show that any Sierpi\'nski packing by continua whose diameters are square-summable can be…
The Discrete Schwarz-Pick Lemma is a discrete analogue of the classical result from complex analysis, arising from the connection between circle packings and conformal maps established by Thurston. Previous works by Beardon-Stephanson and…
We study random packings of $2\times2$ squares with centers on the square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$, in which the probability of a packing is proportional to $\lambda$ to the number of squares. We prove that for large $\lambda$, typical…
We prove that the discrete harmonic function corresponding to smooth Dirichlet boundary conditions on orthodiagonal maps, that is, plane graphs having quadrilateral faces with orthogonal diagonals, converges to its continuous counterpart as…
Let $\Sigma$ be a compact Riemann surface and $D_1,...,D_n$ a finite number of pairwise disjoint closed disks of $\Sigma$. We prove the existence of a proper harmonic map into the Euclidean plane from a hyperbolic domain $\Omega$ containing…
We prove some rigidity theorems for configurations of closed disks. First, fix two collections $\mathcal{C}$ and $\tilde{\mathcal{C}}$ of closed disks in the Riemann sphere $\hat{\mathbb{C}}$, sharing a contact graph which…
The Andreev-Thurston Circle Packing Theorem is generalized to packings of convex bodies in planar simply connected domains. This turns out to be a useful tool for constructing conformal and quasiconformal mappings with interesting geometric…
Let a planar residual set be a set obtained by removing countably many disjoint topological disks from an open set in the plane. We prove that the residual set of a planar packing by curves that satisfy a certain lower curvature bound has…
