Title
Iterative Universal Rigidity
Abstract
A bar framework determined by a finite graph $$G$$G and a configuration $$\\mathbf{p =(p_1,\\ldots , p_n) }$$p=(p1,¿,pn) in $$\\mathbb {R}^d$$Rd is universally rigid if it is rigid in any $$\\mathbb {R}^D \\supset \\mathbb {R}^d$$RD¿Rd. We provide a characterization of universal rigidity for any graph $$G$$G and any configuration $$\\mathbf{p}$$p in terms of a sequence of affine subsets of the space of configurations. This corresponds to a facial reduction process for closed finite-dimensional convex cones.
