- Abstract:
-
The minimum feature size of a planar straight-line graph is the minimum
distance between a vertex and a nonincident edge. When such a graph is
partitioned into a mesh, the degradation is the ratio of original to
final minimum feature size. For an n-vertex input, we give a
triangulation (meshing) algorithm that limits degradation to only a constant
factor, as long as Steiner points are allowed on the sides of triangles. If
such Steiner points are not allowed, our algorithm realizes
O(lg n) degradation. This addresses a 14-year-old open
problem by Bern, Dobkin, and Eppstein.
