On the Unfolding of Simple Closed Curves
We show that every rectifiable simple closed curve in the plane can be continuously deformed into a convex curve in a motion which preserves arc length and does not decrease the Euclidean distance between any pair of points on the curve. This result is obtained by approximating the curve with polygons and invoking the result of Connelly, Demaine, and Rote that such a motion exists for polygons....
متن کاملContinuous Maps on Digital Simple Closed Curves
We give digital analogues of classical theorems of topology for continuous functions defined on spheres, for digital simple closed curves. In particular, we show the following: 1) A digital simple closed curve S of more than 4 points is not contractible, i.e., its identity map is not nullhomotopic in S ; 2) Let X and Y be digital simple closed curves, each symmetric with respect to the origin, ...
متن کاملVeech surfaces and simple closed curves
We study the SL(2,R)–infimal lengths of simple closed curves on half-translation surfaces. Our main result is a characterization of Veech surfaces in terms of these lengths. We also revisit the “no small virtual triangles” theorem of Smillie and Weiss and establish the following dichotomy: the virtual triangle area spectrum of a half-translation surface either has a gap above zero or is dense i...
متن کاملSimple fitting of subject-specific curves for longitudinal data.
We present a simple semiparametric model for fitting subject-specific curves for longitudinal data. Individual curves are modelled as penalized splines with random coefficients. This model has a mixed model representation, and it is easily implemented in standard statistical software. We conduct an analysis of the long-term effect of radiation therapy on the height of children suffering from ac...
متن کاملSelf-intersection Free and Topologically Faithful Slicing of Implicit Solid
We present a robust and efficient approach to directly slicing implicit solids. Different from prior slicing techniques that reconstruct contours on the slicing plane by tracing the topology of intersected line segments, which is actually not robust, we generate contours through a topology guaranteed contour extraction on binary images sampled from given solids and a subsequent contour simplifi...
