A space-optimal data-stream algorithm for coresets in the plane
Given a point set P R2 , a subset Q P is an -kernel of P if for every slab W containing Q, the (1+)-expansion of W also contains P. We present a data-stream algorithm for mainta...

On the hardness of minkowski addition and related operations
For polytopes P, Q Rd we consider the intersection P Q; the convex hull of the union CH(P Q); and the Minkowski sum P + Q. We prove that given rational H-polytopes P1, P2, Q it...

Streaming algorithms for line simplification
We study the following variant of the well-known line-simplification problem: we are getting a possibly infinite sequence of points p0, p1, p2, . . . in the plane defining a polyg...

Guard placement for efficient point-in-polygon proofs
We consider the problem of placing a small number of angle guards inside a simple polygon P so as to provide efficient proofs that any given point is inside P. Each angle guard vi...

Kinetic KD-trees and longest-side KD-trees
We propose a simple variant of kd-trees, called rank-based kd-trees, for sets of points in Rd . We show that a rank-based kd-tree, like an ordinary kd-tree, supports range search ...
