Title
Computing the L1 Geodesic Diameter and Center of a Polygonal Domain.
Abstract
For a polygonal domain with h holes and a total of n vertices, we present algorithms that compute the L-1 geodesic diameter in O(n(2)+h(4)) time and the L-1 geodesic center in O((n(4)+n(2) h(4))alpha(n)) time, where alpha(.) denotes the inverse Ackermann function. No algorithms were known for these problems before. For the Euclidean counterpart, the best algorithms compute the geodesic diameter in O(n(7.)(73)) or O(n(7)(h+log n)) time, and compute the geodesic center in O(n(12+is an element of)) time. Therefore, our algorithms are much faster than the algorithms for the Euclidean problems. Our algorithms are based on several interesting observations on L-1 shortest paths in polygonal domains.
