چکیده

Gale transform was successfully used to classify polytopes with few vertices; that is, r-dimensional polytopes with r + k vertices, where k is small. In this paper, we use Gale transform to classify r-dimensional generic bar frameworks with r + k vertices, where k ≤ 4; as universally rigid, globally rigid or nonglobally rigid.

On the universal rigidity of generic bar frameworks

In this paper, we present a sufficient condition for the universal rigidity of a generic bar framework G(p) in terms of the Gale matrix Z corresponding to G(p). We also establish a relationship between the stress matrix S and the Gale matrix Z for bar frameworks. This allows us to translate back and forth between S and Z in recently obtained results concerning universal rigidity, global rigidit...

On bar frameworks, stress matrices and semidefinite programming

A bar framework G(p) in r-dimensional Euclidean space is a graph G = (V,E) on the vertices 1, 2, . . . , n, where each vertex i is located at point p in R. Given a framework G(p) in R, a problem of great interest is that of determining whether or not there exists another framework G(q), not obtained from G(p) by a rigid motion, such that ||q−q || = ||p−p || for all (i, j) ∈ E. This problem is k...

Rooted-tree Decompositions with Matroid Constraints and the Infinitesimal Rigidity of Frameworks with Boundaries

As an extension of a classical tree-partition problem, we consider decompositions of graphs into edge-disjoint (rooted-)trees with an additional matroid constraint. Specifically, suppose we are given a graph G = (V,E), a multiset R = {r1, . . . , rt} of vertices in V , and a matroid M on R. We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for G to be decomposed into t edge-disjoint subgraphs G1 = ...

Infinitesimal Rigidity of Symmetric Bar-Joint Frameworks

We propose new symmetry-adapted rigidity matrices to analyze the infinitesimal rigidity of arbitrary-dimensional bar-joint frameworks with Abelian point group symmetries. These matrices define new symmetry-adapted rigidity matroids on grouplabeled quotient graphs. Using these new tools, we establish combinatorial characterizations of infinitesimally rigid two-dimensional bar-joint frameworks wh...

The rigidity of periodic body-bar frameworks on the three-dimensional fixed torus.

We present necessary and sufficient conditions for the generic rigidity of body-bar frameworks on the three-dimensional fixed torus. These frameworks correspond to infinite periodic body-bar frame-works in with a fixed periodic lattice.
