چکیده

By a polygonization of a finite point set S in the plane we understand a simple polygon having S as the set of its vertices. Let B and R be sets of blue and red points, respectively, in the plane such that B ∪ R is in general position, and the convex hull of B contains k interior blue points and l interior red points. Hurtado et al. found sufficient conditions for the existence of a blue polygonization that encloses all red points. We consider the dual question of the existence of a blue polygonization that excludes all red points R. We show that there is a minimal number K = K(l), which is a polynomial in l, such that one can always find a blue polygonization excluding all red points, whenever k ≥ K. Some other related problems are also considered.

Single-Point Visibility Constraint Minimum Link Paths in Simple Polygons

We address the following problem: Given a simple polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices and two points $s$ and $t$ inside it, find a minimum link path between them such that a given target point $q$ is visible from at least one point on the path. The method is based on partitioning a portion of $P$ into a number of faces of equal link distance from a source point. This partitioning is essentially a shor...

On Decompositions, Partitions, and Coverings with Convex Polygons and Pseudo-Triangles

We propose a novel subdivision of the plane that consists of both convex polygons and pseudo-triangles. This pseudo-convex decomposition is significantly sparser than either convex decompositions or pseudo-triangulations for planar point sets and simple polygons. We also introduce pseudo-convex partitions and coverings. We establish some basic properties and give combinatorial bounds on their c...

Planar Point Sets With Large Minimum Convex Decompositions

We show the existence of sets with n points (n > 4) for which every convex decomposition contains more than f§« — § polygons, which refutes the conjecture that for every set of n points there is a convex decomposition with at most n + C polygons. For sets having exactly three extreme points we show that more than n + s/2(n 3) 4 polygons may be necessary to form a convex decomposition.
