چکیده

We consider drawings of trees in which all edges incident to leaves can be extended to infinite rays without crossing, partitioning the plane into infinite convex polygons. Among all such drawings we seek the one maximizing the angular resolution of the drawing. We find linear time algorithms for solving this problem, both for plane trees and for trees without a fixed embedding. In any such drawing, the edge lengths may be set independently of the angles, without crossing; we describe multiple strategies for setting these lengths.

non-obtuse dihedral angles

Given a combinatorial description C of a polyhedron having E edges, the space of dihedral angles of all compact hyperbolic polyhedra that realize C is generally not a convex subset of R [9]. If C has five or more faces, Andreev’s Theorem states that the corresponding space of dihedral angles AC obtained by restricting to non-obtuse angles is a convex polytope. In this paper we explain why Andre...

A starshaped polyhedron with no net

A simple construction is given for a polyhedron which establishes the following theorem of A. S. Tarasov: There exist polyhedra of spherical type, with convex faces, which admit no planar nets. The net of a polyhedron P consists of a connected collection of polygons, congruent to the faces of the polyhedron, arranged in one plane (conveniently thought of as a sheet of cardboard) without overlap...

On Monotone Drawings of Trees

A crossing-free straight-line drawing of a graph is monotone if there is a monotone path between any pair of vertices with respect to some direction. We show how to construct a monotone drawing of a tree with n vertices on an O(n) × O(n) grid whose angles are close to the best possible angular resolution. Our drawings are convex, that is, if every edge to a leaf is substituted by a ray, the (un...

C*-Extreme Points and C*-Faces oF the Epigraph iF C*-Affine Maps in *-Rings

Abstract. In this paper, we define the notion of C*-affine maps in the unital *-rings and we investigate the C*-extreme points of the graph and epigraph of such maps. We show that for a C*-convex map f on a unital *-ring R satisfying the positive square root axiom with an additional condition, the graph of f is a C*-face of the epigraph of f. Moreover, we prove som...
