Geometric Streaming Algorithms with a Sorting Primitive
We solve several fundamental geometric problems under a new streaming model recently proposed by Ruhl et al. [2, 12]. In this model, in one pass the input stream can be scanned to ...

From Spider Robots to Half Disk Robots
We study the problem of computing the set F of accessible and stable placements of a spider robot. The body of this robot is a single point and the legs are line segments attached...

Geometric lower bounds for parametric matroid optimization
We relate the sequence of minimum bases of a matroid with linearly varying weights to three problems from combinatorial geometry: k-sets, lower envelopes of line segments, and con...

Between umbra and penumbra
Computing shadow boundaries is a difficult problem in the case of non-point light sources. A point is in the umbra if it does not see any part of any light source; it is in full l...

On Boundaries of Highly Visible Spaces and Applications
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the properties of a certain class of highly visible spaces. For a given geometric space C containing obstacles specified by disjoint s...
