Funded Activity Summary

Advanced methods in combinatorial geometry. This project aims to harness new techniques to solve some challenging open problems related to visibility among sets of points. Combinatorial geometry is the mathematical study of the structure of arrangements of points, lines and other geometric objects in space. Many modern technologies require computation with such geometric data, from computer graphics to robotics and computer vision. Advances in the computational techniques that these technologies use are underpinned by mathematical theory. The last five years has seen major breakthroughs in combinatorial geometry, along with the development of ground-breaking new techniques. Solutions to current problems using these techniques are likely to lead to further theoretical advances and insights.
