Advances in Discrete and Computational Geometry: Proceedings of the 1996 Ams-Ims-Siam Joint Summer Research Conference, Discrete and Computational ... 14-18, 1996, Mount (Contemporary Mathematics)

By Jacob E. Goodman

This volume is a collection of refereed expository and research articles in discrete and computational geometry written by leaders in the field. Articles are based on invited talks presented at the AMS-IMS-SIAM Summer Research Conference, ''Discrete and Computational Geometry: Ten Years Later'', held in 1996 at Mt. Holyoke College (So. Hadley, MA). Topics addressed range from tilings, polyhedra, and arrangements to computational topology and visibility problems. Included are papers on the interaction between real algebraic geometry and discrete and computational geometry, as well as on linear programming and geometric discrepancy theory.
