    • A polynomial bound for untangling geometric planar graphs 

      Bose, Prosenjit; Dujmovic, Vida; Hurtado Díaz, Fernando Alfredo; Langerman, Stefan; Morin, Pat; Wood, David (2009-12)
      Article
      Open Access
      To untangle a geometric graph means to move some of the vertices so that the resulting geometric graph has no crossings. Pach and Tardos (Discrete Comput. Geom. 28(4): 585–592, 2002) asked if every n-vertex geometric planar ...

    • Connectivity-preserving transformations of binary images 

      Bose, Prosenjit; Dujmovic, Vida; Hurtado Díaz, Fernando Alfredo; Morin, Pat (2009-10)
      Article
      Open Access
      A binary image $\emph{I}$ is $B_a$, $W_b$-connected, where $\emph{a,b}$ ∊ {4,8}, if its foreground is $\emph{a}$-connected and its background is $\emph{b}$-connected. We consider a local modification of a $B_a$, $W_b$-connected ...

    • Coverage with k-transmitters in the presence of obstacles 

      Uehara, R.; Souvaine, D.; Sacristán Adinolfi, Vera; Morin, P.; Lubiw, A.; Iacono, J.; Ballinger, B.; Benbernou, N.; Bose, P.; Damian, M.; Demaine, E. D.; Dujmovic, Vida; Flatland, R.; Hurtado Díaz, Fernando Alfredo (Springer Verlag, 2010)

      For a fixed integer k ≥ 0, a k-transmitter is an omnidirectional wireless transmitter with an infinite broadcast range that is able to penetrate up to k “walls”, represented as line segments in the plane. We develop lower ...

    • Every large point set contains many collinear points or an empty pentagon 

      Wood, David; Por, Attila; Abel, Zachary; Ballinger, Brad; Bose, Prosenjit; Collette, Sébastien; Dujmovic, Vida; Hurtado Díaz, Fernando Alfredo; Kominers, Scott Duke; Langerman, Stefan (2011-01)

      We prove the following generalised empty pentagon theorem for every integer ℓ ≥ 2, every sufficiently large set of points in the plane contains ℓ collinear points or an empty pentagon. As an application, we settle the next ...

    • Pole Dancing: 3D Morphs for Tree Drawings 

      Arseneva, Elena; Bose, Prosenjit; Cano Vila, María del Pilar; D'Angelo, Anthony; Dujmovic, Vida; Frati, Fabrizio; Langerman, Stefan; Tappini, Alessandra (Springer, 2018)

      We study the question whether a crossing-free 3D morph between two straight-line drawings of an n-vertex tree can be constructed consisting of a small number of linear morphing steps. We look both at the case in which the ...
