Euclidean TSP on two polygons
We give an O(n2 m + nm2 + m2 log m) time and O(n2 + m2 ) space algorithm for finding the shortest traveling salesman tour through the vertices of two simple polygonal obstacles i...

Even Astral Configurations
A configuration (pq, nk) is a collection of p points and n straight lines in the Euclidean plane so that every point has q straight lines passing through it and every line has k p...

Periodicity of certain piecewise affine planar maps
We determine periodic and aperiodic points of certain piecewise affine maps in the Euclidean plane. Using these maps, we prove for λ ∈ { ±1± √ 5 2 , ± √ 2, ± √ 3} that...

On the Number of Arrangements of Pseudolines
Given a simple arrangementof n pseudolines in the Euclidean plane, associate with line i the list i of the lines crossing i in the order of the crossings on line i. i = ( i 1; i 2;...

A Polynomial-Time Approximation Scheme for Euclidean Steiner Forest
We give a randomized O(n polylog n)-time approximation scheme for the Steiner forest problem in the Euclidean plane. For every fixed ǫ > 0 and given n terminals in the plane ...
