This article goes back to the 1921 analysis by Roman Jakobson which identifies a small number of strategies by which arguments about realism proceed. Particularly…
Many problems in computational geometry are not stated in graphtheoretic terms, but can be solved efficiently by constructing an auxiliary graph and performing a graph-theoretic algorithm on it. Often, the efficiency of the algorithm depends on the special properties of the graph constructed in this way.We survey the art gallery problem, partition into rectangles, minimum-diameter clusterin…
