We study the maximal number of triangulations that a planar set of $n$ points can have, and show that it is at most $30^n$. This new bound is achieved by a careful optimization of the charging scheme of Sharir and Welzl (2006), which has…
A Delone set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is a set such that (a) the distance between any two of its points is uniformly bounded below by a strictly positive constant and such that (b) the distance from any point to the remaining points in the set is…
We present an algorithm that takes as input a finite point set in Euclidean space, and performs a perturbation that guarantees that the Delaunay triangulation of the resulting perturbed point set has quantifiable stability with respect to…
The triangulation complexity of a closed orientable 3-manifold is the minimal number of tetrahedra in any triangulation of the manifold. The main theorem of the paper gives upper and lower bounds on the triangulation complexity of any…
Motivated by recent work on Delaunay triangulations of hyperbolic surfaces, we consider the minimal number of vertices of such triangulations. First, we will show that every hyperbolic surface of genus $g$ has a simplicial Delaunay…
We consider the following problem about dispersing points. Given a set of points in the plane, the task is to identify whether by moving a small number of points by small distance, we can obtain an arrangement of points such that no pair of…
We generalize the notions of flippable and simultaneously flippable edges in a triangulation of a set S of points in the plane to so-called \emph{pseudo-simultaneously flippable edges}. Such edges are related to the notion of convex…
Delone sets are locally finite point sets, such that (a) any two points are separated by a given minimum distance, and (b) there is a given radius so that every ball of that radius contains at least one point. Important examples include the…
We describe an algorithm to construct an intrinsic Delaunay triangulation of a smooth closed submanifold of Euclidean space. Using results established in a companion paper on the stability of Delaunay triangulations on $\delta$-generic…
We study the set of image tuples arising from fixed cameras observing varying planar 3-dimensional point configurations. We derive a formula for the number of complex critical points of the triangulation problem, which seeks to reconstruct…
Given two distinct point sets $P$ and $Q$ in the plane, we say that $Q$ \emph{blocks} $P$ if no two points of $P$ are adjacent in any Delaunay triangulation of $P\cup Q$. Aichholzer et al. (2013) showed that any set $P$ of $n$ points in…
Let ${\cal L}$ be an arrangement of $n$ lines in the Euclidean plane. The \emph{$k$-level} of ${\cal L}$ consists of all vertices $v$ of the arrangement which have exactly $k$ lines of ${\cal L}$ passing below $v$. The complexity (the…
We show that the traditional criterion for a simplex to belong to the Delaunay triangulation of a point set is equivalent to a criterion which is a priori weaker. The argument is quite general; as well as the classical Euclidean case, it…
We consider the problem of maintaining the Euclidean Delaunay triangulation $\DT$ of a set $P$ of $n$ moving points in the plane, along algebraic trajectories of constant description complexity. Since the best known upper bound on the…
We describe a randomized algorithm that, given a set $P$ of points in the plane, computes the best location to insert a new point $p$, such that the Delaunay triangulation of $P\cup\{p\}$ has the largest possible minimum angle. The expected…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane in general position. We show that at least $\lfloor n/3\rfloor$ plane spanning trees can be packed into the complete geometric graph on $P$. This improves the previous best known lower bound…
A geometric $t$-spanner for a set $S$ of $n$ point sites is an edge-weighted graph for which the (weighted) distance between any two sites $p,q \in S$ is at most $t$ times the original distance between $p$ and~$q$. We study geometric…
Given a collection of n opaque unit disks in the plane, we want to find a stacking order for them that maximizes their visible perimeter---the total length of all pieces of their boundaries visible from above. We prove that if the centers…
Delone sets are discrete point sets $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ characterized by parameters $(r,R)$, where (usually) $2r$ is the smallest inter-point distance of $X$, and $R$ is the radius of a largest ``empty ball" that can be inserted into the…
The Szemer\'edi-Trotter theorem gives a bound on the maximum number of incidences between points and lines on the Euclidean plane. In particular it says that $n$ lines and $n$ points determine $O(n^{4/3})$ incidences. Let us suppose that an…
