Restricted Constrained Delaunay Triangulations

We introduce the restricted constrained Delaunay triangulation (restricted CDT). The restricted CDT generalizes the restricted Delaunay triangulation, allowing us to define a triangulation of a surface that includes a set of constraining segments. Under certain sampling conditions, the restricted CDT includes every constrained segment and suggests an algorithm that produces a triangulation of t...

Blocking Delaunay triangulations

Given a set B of n black points in general position, we say that a set of white points W blocks B if in the Delaunay triangulation of [Formula: see text] there is no edge connecting two black points. We give the following bounds for the size of the smallest set W blocking B: (i) [Formula: see text] white points are always sufficient to block a set of n black points, (ii) if B is in convex posit...

Kinetic Convex Hulls, Delaunay Triangulations and Connectivity Structures in the Black-Box Model

Over the past decade, the kinetic-data-structures framework has become the standard in computational geometry for dealing with moving objects. A fundamental assumption underlying the framework is that the motions of the objects are known in advance. This assumption severely limits the applicability of KDSs. We study KDSs in the black-box model, which is a hybrid of the KDS model and the traditi...

Linear-Time Delaunay Triangulations Simplified∗

Recently it was shown that — under reasonable assumptions — Voronoi diagrams and Delaunay triangulations of planar point sets can be computed in time o(n log n), beating the classical comparisonbased lower bound. A number of increasingly faster randomized algorithms have been proposed, most recently a linear-time algorithm based on a randomized incremental construction that uses a combination o...
