Distinct distances in three and higher dimensions
Improving an old result of Clarkson et al., we show that the number of distinct distances determined by a set P of n points in three-dimensional space is (n77/141) = (n0.546 ), fo...

On distinct distances among points in general position and other related problems
A set of points in the plane is said to be in general position if no three of them are collinear and no four of them are cocircular. If a point set determines only distinct vector...

Three and higher dimensional autonomous formations: Rigidity, persistence and structural persistence
In this paper, we generalize the notion of persistence, which has been originally introduced for two-dimensional formations, to Rd for d 3, seeking to provide a theoretical framew...

A higher dimensional formulation for robust and interactive distance queries
We present an efficient and robust algorithm for computing the minimum distance between a point and freeform curve or surface by lifting the problem into a higher dimension. This...
