Title
Counting triangulations and pseudo-triangulations of wheels
Abstract
Motivated by several open questions on triangulations and pseudotriangulations, we give closed form expres- sions for the number of triangulations and the number of minimum pseudo-triangulations of n points in wheel configurations, that is, with n 1 in convex position. Although the numbers of triangulations and pseudotri- angulations vary depending on the placement of the in- terior point, their difference is always the (n 2)nd Cata- lan number. We also prove an inequality #PT � 3i#T for the numbers of minimum pseudo-triangulations and trian- gulations of any point configuration with i interior points.
