3-colorability of pseudo-triangulations
Aichholzer, Oswin; Aurenhammer, Franz; Hackl, Thomas; Huemer, Clemens; Pilz, Alexander; Vogtenhuber, Birgit (2015)
Article
Open AccessDeciding 3-colorability for general plane graphs is known to be an NP-complete problem. However, for certain families of graphs, like triangulations, polynomial time algorithms exist. We consider the family of pseudo-tri ... -
4-Holes in point sets
Aichholzer, Oswin; Fabila Monroy, Ruy; Gonzalez Aguilar, Hernan; Hackl, Thomas; Heredia, Marco A.; Huemer, Clemens; Urrutia Galicia, Jorge; Vogtenhuber, Birgit (2014-08-01)
Article
Open AccessWe consider a variant of a question of Erdos on the number of empty k-gons (k-holes) in a set of n points in the plane, where we allow the k-gons to be non-convex. We show bounds and structural results on maximizing and ... -
Cell-paths in mono- and bichromatic line arrangements in the plane
Aichholzer, Oswin; Cardinal, Jean; Hackl, Thomas; Hurtado Díaz, Fernando Alfredo; Korman Cozzetti, Matías; Pilz, Alexander; Silveira, Rodrigo Ignacio; Uehara, Ryuhei; Vogtenhuber, Birgit; Welzl, Emo (2014)
Conference report
Open AccessWe show that in every arrangement of n red and blue lines | in general position and not all of the same color | there is a path through a linear number of cells where red and blue lines are crossed alternatingly (and no ... -
Compatible matchings in geometric graphs
Aichholzer, Oswin; García Olaverri, Alfredo; Hurtado Díaz, Fernando Alfredo; Tejel Altarriba, F. Javier (Centre de Recerca Matemàtica, 2011)
Conference report
Open AccessTwo non-crossing geometric graphs on the same set of points are compatible if their union is also non-crossing. In this paper, we prove that every graph G that has an outerplanar embedding admits a non-crossing perfect ... -
Edge-Removal and Non-Crossing Configurations in Geometric Graphs
Aichholzer, Oswin; Cabello, Sergio; Fabila Monroy, Ruy; Flores Peñaloza, David; Hackl, Thomas; Huemer, Clemens; Hurtado Díaz, Fernando Alfredo; Wood, David (2010)
Article
Open AccessA geometric graph is a graph G = (V;E) drawn in the plane, such that V is a point set in general position and E is a set of straight-line segments whose endpoints belong to V . We study the following extremal problem for ... -
Empty monochromatic simplices
Aichholzer, Oswin; Fabila Monroy, Ruy; Hackl, Thomas; Huemer, Clemens; Urrutia Galicia, Jorge (2014-03-01)
Article
Open AccessLet S be a k-colored (finite) set of n points in , da parts per thousand yen3, in general position, that is, no (d+1) points of S lie in a common (d-1)-dimensional hyperplane. We count the number of empty monochromatic ... -
Empty triangles in good drawings of the complete graph
Aichholzer, Oswin; Hackl, Thomas; Pilz, Alexander; Ramos Alonso, Pedro Antonio; Sacristán Adinolfi, Vera; Vogtenhuber, Birgit (2015)
Article
Open AccessA good drawing of a simple graph is a drawing on the sphere or, equivalently, in the plane in which vertices are drawn as distinct points, edges are drawn as Jordan arcs connecting their end vertices, and any pair of edges ... -
Geodesic order types
Aichholzer, Oswin; Korman Cozzetti, Matías; Pilz, Alexander; Vogtenhuber, Birgit (2014-09-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe geodesic between two points a and b in the interior of a simple polygon P is the shortest polygonal path inside P that connects a to b. It is thus the natural generalization of straight line segments on unconstrained ... -
Large bichromatic point sets admit empty monochromatic 4-gons
Aichholzer, Oswin; Hackl, Thomas; Huemer, Clemens; Hurtado Díaz, Fernando Alfredo; Vogtenhuber, Birgit (2009)
Conference report
Open AccessWe consider a variation of a problem stated by Erd˝os and Szekeres in 1935 about the existence of a number fES(k) such that any set S of at least fES(k) points in general position in the plane has a subset of k points that ... -
Lower bounds for the number of small convex k-holes
Aichholzer, Oswin; Fabila Monroy, Ruy; Hackl, Thomas; Huemer, Clemens; Pilz, Alexander; Vogtenhuber, Birgit (2014-07-01)
Article
Open AccessLet S be a set of n points in the plane in general position, that is, no three points of S are on a line. We consider an Erdos-type question on the least number h(k)(n) of convex k-holes in S, and give improved lower bounds ... -
Maximizing maximal angles for plane straight-line graphs
Aichholzer, Oswin; Hackl, Thomas; Hoffmann, Michael; Huemer, Clemens; Pór, Attila; Santos, Francisco; Speckmann, Bettina; Vogtenhuber, Birgit (2013-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyLet G=(S,E) be a plane straight-line graph on a finite point set S⊂R2 in general position. The incident angles of a point p∈S in G are the angles between any two edges of G that appear consecutively in the circular order ... -
Modem illumination of monotone polygons
Aichholzer, Oswin; Fabila Monroy, Ruy; Flores Peñaloza, David; Hackl, Thomas; Huemer, Clemens; Urrutia Galicia, Jorge; Vogtenhuber, Birgit (2009)
Conference report
Open AccessWe study a generalization of the classical problem of illumination of polygons. Instead of modeling a light source we model a wireless device whose radio signal can penetrate a given number k of walls. We call these ... -
On k-gons and k-holes in point sets

Article
Open AccessWe consider a variation of the classical Erdos-Szekeres problems on the existence and number of convex k-gons and k-holes (empty k-gons) in a set of n points in the plane. Allowing the k-gons to be non-convex, we show ... -

Two-convex polygons
Aichholzer, Oswin; Aurenhammer, Franz; Hurtado Díaz, Fernando Alfredo; Ramos, Pedro A.; Urrutia, J. (Université Libre de Bruxelles, 2009)
Conference report
Open AccessWe introduce a notion of k-convexity and explore some properties of polygons that have this property. In particular, 2-convex polygons can be recognized in O(n log n) time, and k-convex polygons can be triangulated in O(kn) time.
