The Hyperbolic Surface Distance, Diameter, and Dirichlet Problems

Vincent Despre, Auguste Gezalyan, Marc Pouget

Despite the prominence of hyperbolic surfaces in mathematics, basic algorithmic questions about them, even computing the distance between two points, have remained open, leaving ma…

NeuralParker: A Reinforcement Learning Planner for Irregular Parking Environments

Zihan Wang, Bai Huang, Yang Guan +4

Automated parking commonly assumes marked slots and short approach maneuvers. Delivery and service vehicles, however, may need to reach an operator-specified pose in an irregular b…

A Discrete Analog of Tutte's Barycentric Embeddings on Surfaces

Éric Colin de Verdière, Vincent Despré, Loïc Dubois

Tutte's celebrated barycentric embedding theorem describes a natural way to build straight-line embeddings (crossing-free drawings) of a (3-connected) planar graph: map the vertice…

Untangling Graphs on Surfaces

Éric Colin de Verdière, Vincent Despré, Loïc Dubois

Consider a graph drawn on a surface (for example, the plane minus a finite set of obstacle points), possibly with crossings. We provide an algorithm to decide whether such a drawin…

Systoles and diameters of hyperbolic surfaces

Florent Balacheff, Vincent Despré, Hugo Parlier

In this article we explore the relationship between the systole and the diameter of closed hyperbolic orientable surfaces. We show that they satisfy a certain inequality, which can…

Computing the Geometric Intersection Number of Curves

Vincent Despré, Francis Lazarus

The geometric intersection number of a curve on a surface is the minimal number of self-intersections of any homotopic curve, i.e. of any curve obtained by continuous deformation.…

Some Triangulated Surfaces without Balanced Splitting

Vincent Despré, Francis Lazarus

Let G be the graph of a triangulated surface of genus . A cycle of G is splitting if it cuts into two components, neither of which is homeomorphic to a disk. A spl…

Encoding toroidal triangulations

Vincent Despré, Daniel Gonçalves, Benjamin Lévêque

Poulalhon and Schaeffer introduced an elegant method to linearly encode a planar triangulation optimally. The method is based on performing a special depth-first search algorithm o…
