Embedding rivers in polyhedral terrains
Data conflation is a major issue in GIS: spatial data obtained from different sources, using different acquisition techniques, needs to be combined into one single consistent d...

Epsilon nets and union complexity
We consider the following combinatorial problem: given a set of n objects (for example, disks in the plane, triangles), and an integer L ≥ 1, what is the size of the smallest su...

Shooting permanent rays among disjoint polygons in the plane
We present a data structure for ray shooting-and-insertion in the free space among disjoint polygonal obstacles with a total of n vertices in the plane, where each ray starts at t...

Coresets for polytope distance
Following recent work of Clarkson, we translate the coreset framework to the problems of finding the point closest to the origin inside a polytope, finding the shortest distance...

Cache-oblivious range reporting with optimal queries requires superlinear space
We consider a number of range reporting problems in two and three dimensions and prove lower bounds on the amount of space used by any cache-oblivious data structure for these pro...
