Suppose x and y are unit 2-norm n-vectors whose components sum to zero. Let P(x, y) be the polygon obtained by connecting (x1, y1), . . . , (xn, yn), (x1, y1) in order. We say that...
—A room is a simple polygon with a prespecified point, called the door, on its boundary. Search may be conducted by two guards on the boundary who keep mutual visibility at all ...
In this paper we consider the problem of decomposing a simple polygon into subpolygons that exclusively use vertices of the given polygon. We allow two types of subpolygons: pseud...
A hinged dissection of a set of polygons S is a collection of polygonal pieces hinged together at vertices that can be rotated into any member of S. We present a hinged dissection...

We consider the problem of decomposing polygons (with holes) into various types of simpler polygons. We focus on the problem of partitioning a rectilinear polygon, with holes, int...

In this paper we consider the problem of monitoring an art gallery modeled as a polygon, the edges of which are arcs of curves. We consider two types of guards: edge guards (these...
Map comparison techniques based on a pixel-by-pixel comparison are useful for many purposes, but fail to reveal important aspects of map similarities and differences. In contrast, ...
Let P be a polygon whose vertices have been colored (labeled) cyclically with the numbers 1, 2, . . . , c. Motivated by conjectures of Propp, we are led to consider partitions of ...
Given a convex polygon in the plane, we are interested in triangulations of its interior, i.e. maximal sets of nonintersecting diagonals that subdivide the interior of the polygon...
We explore an instance of the question of partitioning a polygon into pieces, each of which is as “circular” as possible, in the sense of having an aspect ratio close to
