With emphasis on computational issues, it presents the basic theory necessary to construct and manipulate triangulations. In particular, the book gives a tour through the theory behind the Delaunay triangulation, including algorithms and software issues. It also discusses various data structures used for the representation of triangulations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We consider the concept of triangulation of an oriented matroid. We provide a definition which generalizes the previous ones by Billera-Munson and by Anderson and which specializes to the usual notion of triangulation (or simplicial fan) in the realizable case. Then we study the relation existing between triangulations of an oriented matroid $\mathcal{M}$ and extensions of its dual $\mathcal{M}^*$, via the so-called lifting triangulations. We show that this duality behaves particularly well in the class of Lawrence matroid polytopes. In particular, that the extension space conjecture for realizable oriented matroids is equivalent to the restriction to Lawrence polytopes of the Generalized Baues problem for subdivisions of polytopes. We finish by showing examples and a characterization of lifting triangulations.

Book excerpt: As a new type of technique, simplicial methods have yielded extremely important contributions toward solutions of a system of nonlinear equations. Theoretical investigations and numerical tests have shown that the performance of simplicial methods depends critically on the triangulations underlying them. This monograph describes some recent developments in triangulations and simplicial methods. It includes the D1-triangulation and its applications to simplicial methods. As a result, efficiency of simplicial methods has been improved significantly. Thus more effective simplicial methods have been developed.

Book excerpt: Unimodular triangulations of lattice polytopes arise in algebraic geometry, commutative algebra, integer programming and, of course, combinatorics. In this article, we review several classes of polytopes that do have unimodular triangulations and constructions that preserve their existence. We include, in particular, the first effective proof of the classical result by Knudsen-Mumford-Waterman stating that every lattice polytope has a dilation that admits a unimodular triangulation. Our proof yields an explicit (although doubly exponential) bound for the dilation factor.

This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voronoi diagrams partition space according to the influence certain sites exert on their environment. Since the 17th century, such structures play an important role in many areas like Astronomy, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Ecology, Economics, Mathematics and Computer Science. They help to describe zones of political influence, to determine the hospital nearest to an accident site, to compute collision-free paths for mobile robots, to reconstruct curves and surfaces from sample points, to refine triangular meshes, and to design location strategies for competing markets. This unique book offers a state-of-the-art view of Voronoi diagrams and their structure, and it provides efficient algorithms towards their computation. Readers with an entry-level background in algorithms can enjoy a guided tour of gently increasing difficulty through a fascinating area. Lecturers might find this volume a welcome source for their courses on computational geometry. Experts are offered a broader view, including many alternative solutions, and up-to-date references to the existing literature; they might benefit in their own research or application development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A mathematical puzzle book that involves labeling points or edges on three types of graphs: (1) polycubes, which consist of cubes attached face-to-face, (2) polyhexes, which consist of regular hexagons joined edge to edge, and (3) triangulations, which consist of triangles attached edge to edge. For a polycube with n points, the puzzle consists of labeling each vertex with the full set of integers (mod n), (Zn) so that the four labels belonging to each face of every component cube have the same sum. For a polyhex with n points, the vertices are to be labeled with elements from Zn so that the six labels assigned to each component hexagon have the same sum. For puzzles involving triangulation, the edges, instead of the vertices, are to be labeled with elements of Zn. To solve the puzzle, a labeling must be found so that the edges of each component triangle have the same sum. Unlike sudoku, these puzzles have many solutions; the solutions provided in the back of the book are included just to show that a solution exists. Readers are encouraged to create and solve their own puzzles in any of the three genres. Questions of mathematical interest are provided throughout.
