Wepresent algorithms for kinematic manipulation of molecular chains subject to fixed bond lengths and bond angles. They are useful for calculating conformations of a molecule subj...
Laman’s characterization of minimally rigid 2-dimensional generic frameworks gives a matroid structure on the edge set of the underlying graph, as was first pointed out and expl...

We examine the generic local and global rigidity of various graphs in Rd . Bruce Hendrickson showed that some necessary conditions for generic global rigidity are (d + 1)-connected...
All known examples of generic 3D bar-and-joint frameworks where the distance between a non-edge pair is implied by the edges in the graph contain a rigid vertexinduced subgraph. I...
