We generalize the classic definition of Delaunay triangulation and prove that for a locally finite and coarsely dense generic point set, $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, the $d$-simplices whose vertices belong to $A$ and whose circumscribed…

A planar point set of $n$ points is called {\em $\gamma$-dense} if the ratio of the largest and smallest distances among the points is at most $\gamma\sqrt{n}$. We construct a dense set of $n$ points in the plane with…

Consider a plane graph G, drawn with straight lines. For every pair a,b of vertices of G, we compare the shortest-path distance between a and b in G (with Euclidean edge lengths) to their actual distance in the plane. The worst-case ratio…

We investigate algorithms with predictions in computational geometry, specifically focusing on the basic problem of computing 2D Delaunay triangulations. Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane and a triangulation $G$ that serves as a…

The problem of computing the exact stretch factor (i.e., the tight bound on the worst case stretch factor) of a Delaunay triangulation is one of the longstanding open problems in computational geometry. Over the years, a series of upper and…

In this paper, we provide an $O(n \mathrm{polylog} n)$ bound on the expected complexity of the randomly weighted Voronoi diagram of a set of $n$ sites in the plane, where the sites can be either points, interior-disjoint convex sets, or…

Let $L \subset {\Bbb R}^3$ be the union of unit balls, whose centres lie on the $z$-axis, and are equidistant with distance $2d \in [2, 2\sqrt{2}]$. Then a packing of unit balls in ${\Bbb R}^3$ consisting of translates of $L$ has a density…

Delaunay triangulations provide a bijection between a set of $N+3$ points in the complex plane, and the set of triangulations with given circumcircle intersection angles. The uniform Lebesgue measure on these angles translates into a…

A new O(nlog(n)) algorithm is presented for performing Delaunay triangulation of sets of 2D points. The novel component of the algorithm is a radially propagating \emph{sweep-hull} (sequentially created from the radially sorted set of 2D…

The study of extremal problems on triangle areas was initiated in a series of papers by Erd\H{o}s and Purdy in the early 1970s. In this paper we present new results on such problems, concerning the number of triangles of the same area that…

A Delaunay graph built on a planar point set has an edge between two vertices when there exists a disk with the two vertices on its boundary and no vertices in its interior. When the disk is replaced with an equilateral triangle, the…

An ordinary circle of a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane is defined as a circle that contains exactly three points of $P$. We show that if $P$ is not contained in a line or a circle, then $P$ spans at least $\frac{1}{4}n^2 - O(n)$…

Delaunay triangulation can be considered as a type of complex networks. For complex networks, the degree distribution is one of the most important inherent characteristics. In this paper, we first consider the two- and three-dimensional…

We describe an algorithm that takes as input n points in the plane and a parameter {\epsilon}, and produces as output an embedded planar graph having the given points as a subset of its vertices in which the graph distances are a (1 +…

We study the problem of finding a triangulation T of a planar point set S such as to minimize the expected distance between two points x and y chosen uniformly at random from S. By distance we mean the length of the shortest path between x…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane, each point moving along a given trajectory. A {\em $k$-collinearity} is a pair $(L,t)$ of a line $L$ and a time $t$ such that $L$ contains at least $k$ points at time $t$, the points along $L$ do…

Via circle pattern techniques, random planar triangulations (with angle variables) are mapped onto Delaunay triangulations in the complex plane. The uniform measure on triangulations is mapped onto a conformally invariant spatial point…

We show how a filtration of Delaunay complexes can be used to approximate the persistence diagram of the distance to a point set in $R^d$. Whereas the full Delaunay complex can be used to compute this persistence diagram exactly, it may…

Computational complexity and approximation algorithms are reported for a problem of stabbing a set of straight line segments with the least cardinality set of disks of fixed radii $r>0$ where the set of segments forms a straight line…

We study metrics that assess how close a triangulation is to being a Delaunay triangulation, for use in contexts where a good triangulation is desired but constraints (e.g., maximum degree) prevent the use of the Delaunay triangulation…
