Order on Order Types

چکیده
Given P and P ′, equally sized planar point sets in general position, we call a bijection from P to P ′ crossing-preserving if crossings of connecting segments in P are preserved in P ′ (extra crossings may occur in P ′). If such a mapping exists, we say that P ′ crossing-dominates P , and if such a mapping exists in both directions, P and P ′ are called crossing-equivalent. The relation is transitive, and we have a partial order on the obtained equivalence classes (called crossing types or x-types). Point sets of equal order type are clearly crossing-equivalent, but not vice versa. Thus, x-types are a coarser classification than order types. (We will see, though, that a collapse of different order types to one x-type occurs for sets with triangular convex hull only.) We argue that either the maximal or the minimal x-types are sufficient for answering many combinatorial (existential or extremal) questions on planar point sets. Motivated by this we consider basic properties of the relation. We characterize order types crossing-dominated by points in convex position. Further, we give a full characterization of minimal and maximal abstract order types. Based on that, we provide a polynomial-time algorithm to check whether a point set crossing-dominates another. Moreover, we generate all maximal and minimal x-types for small numbers of points. 1998 ACM Subject Classification G.2.1 Combinatorics, F.2.2 Nonnumerical Algorithms and Problems

متن کاملNear-Optimal Controls of a Fuel Cell Coupled with Reformer using Singular Perturbation methods
A singularly perturbed model is proposed for a system comprised of a PEM Fuel Cell(PEM-FC) with Natural Gas Hydrogen Reformer (NG-HR). This eighteenth order system is decomposedinto slow and fast lower order subsystems using singular perturbation techniques that provides tools forseparation and order reduction. Then, three different types of controllers, namely an optimal full-order,a near-opti...

Diffraction line broadening analysis has been proved to be an extremely powerful method to study the defect properties of crystalline materials, since different types of defects produce different types of diffraction line profiles. In other word, the distribution of intensity, especially in tails of line profile, strongly depends on the crystallite size and dislocation structures. In this paper...
متن کاملPolitical Islam and Popular Order in Post-Revolutionary Iran
Political Islam in Iran, which initially formed in the guise of Sultāni order, experiences its second form after 1979 Revolution, named popular order. While in both forms, the authority of religion has been accepted in political life, these types of order demonstrate two different experiences of political Islam in Iran. Thus, the comprehension of this new experience of political Islam after the...
متن کاملStability and Performance Attainment with Fixed Order Controller Using Frequency Response
Recently, a new data driven controller synthesis is presented for calculating the family of stabilizing first, second and fixed order controller using frequency respons. However, this method is applicable just for plants that can guarantee some smoothness at the boundary of the resulted high dimension LMI. This paper solve that issue and extends the approach to fixed order controllers guarantee...
متن کاملIdentification of Riemannian foliations on the tangent bundle via SODE structure
The geometry of a system of second order differential equations is the geometry of a semispray, which is a globally defined vector field on TM. The metrizability of a given semispray is of special importance. In this paper, the metric associated with the semispray S is applied in order to study some types of foliations on the tangent bundle which are compatible with SODE structure. Indeed, suff...
