Loops in reeb graphs of 2-manifolds
Given a Morse function over a 2-manifold with or without boundary, the Reeb graph is obtained by contracting the connected components of the level sets to points. We prove tight u...

Restricted delaunay triangulations and normal cycle
We address the problem of curvature estimation from sampled smooth surfaces. Building upon the theory of normal cycles, we derive a definition of the curvature tensor for polyhed...

Curve reconstruction from noisy samples
We present an algorithm to reconstruct a collection of disjoint smooth closed curves from noisy samples. Our noise model assumes that the samples are obtained by first drawing po...

the asteroid surveying problem and other puzzles
We consider two variants of the well-known “sailor in the fog” puzzle. The first version (the “asteroid surveying” problem) is set in three dimensions and asks for the sh...

Euclidean bounded-degree spanning tree ratios
Let τK be the worst-case (supremum) ratio of the weight of the minimum degree-K spanning tree to the weight of the minimum spanning tree, over all finite point sets in the Eu

Molecular shape analysis based upon the morse-smale complex and the connolly function
Docking is the process by which two or several molecules form a complex. Docking involves the geometry of the molecular surfaces, as well as chemical and energetical consideration...

Long monotone paths in line arrangements
We show how to construct an arrangement of n lines having a monotone path of length Ω(n2−(d/ √ log n)), where d > 0 is some constant, and thus nearly settle the long stan...
