Let P be a set of n points in Ê3 , not all in a common plane. We solve a problem of Scott (1970) by showing that the connecting lines of P assume at least 2n − 7 different dir...
Let B be a set of n unit balls in R3 . We show that the combinatorial complexity of the space of lines in R3 that avoid all the balls of B is O(n3+ε ), for any ε > 0. This re...

We prove that the geometric thickness of graphs whose maximum degree is no more than four is two. In our proofs, we present a space and time efficient embedding technique for gra...

Given a set P of n points in convex position in the plane, we prove that there exists a point p ∈ P such that the number of distinct distances from p is at least (13n−6)/36 . ...
Given a smoothly embedded 2-manifold in ¤¦¥ , we define the elevation of a point as the height difference to a canonically defined second point on the same manifold. Our de...
