On Finding Large Polygonal Voids Using Delaunay Triangulation: The Case of Planar Point Sets
[chapter]
2014
Proceedings of the 22nd International Meshing Roundtable
A polygon is considered a void if its area is larger than a threshold value. The algorithm is validated in 2D points with artificially generated circular and non-convex polygon voids. ...
This paper proposes a new method to find voids that starting from local longest-edges in a Delaunay triangulation builds the largest possible empty or almost empty polygons around them. ...

On the Reflexivity of Point Sets
[chapter]
2001
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We introduce a new measure for planar point sets Ë. ...
Intuitively, it describes the combinatorial distance from a convex set: The reflexivity ´Ëµ of Ë is given by the smallest number of reflex vertices in a simple polygonization of Ë. ...
The study of convex chains in finite planar point sets is the topic of classical papers by Erdős and Szekeres [7, 8] , who showed that any point set of size Ò has a convex subset of size Ø ª´ÐÓ Òµ. ...

2014
arXiv

We consider discretization of the 'geometric cover problem' in the plane: Given a set P of n points in the plane and a compact planar object T_0, find a minimum cardinality collection of planar translates ...
We propose a reduced finite solution space that consists of distinct canonical translates and present polynomial algorithms to find the reduce solution space for disks, convex/non-convex polygons (including ...
If the prototype is a convex polygon of m vertices, the inverses of the translates whose reference points are the points in a given set P are also convex polygons of m vertices. ...

Introduction: “We consider the following problem, called ‘batched planar point location’: Given a planar subdivision R induced by a plane graph G = (V, E), with |V| = N, and a set S of M points in the ...
A sorting method is proposed that is based on the decomposition of a plane algebraic curve into convex segments and on point location in this decomposition. ...

We introduce pseudo-convex decompositions, partitions, and coverings for planar point sets. They are natural extensions of their convex counterparts and use both convex polygons and pseudo-triangles. ...
We discuss some of their basic combinatorial properties and establish upper and lower bounds on their complexity. ...

EMPTY CONVEX 5-GONS IN PLANAR POINT SETS
2009
Honam Mathematical Journal
Erdös posed the problem of determining the minimum number g(n) such that any set of g(n) points in general position in the plane contains an empty convex n-gon. ...
In 1978, Harborth proved that g(5) = 10. We reprove the result in a geometric approach. ...
In this paper, we reprove a known result related to the Erdös and Szekeres problem which is a classic problem counting empty convex k-gons in planar points sets. ...

The equidistant set of two nonempty subsets K and L in the Euclidean plane is a set all of whose points have the same distance from K and L. ...
In this sense the equidistancy is a generalization of the convexity. ...
In general there are lots of different ways to give a convex polygon as an equidistant set. ...
