The Geodesic Farthest-point Voronoi Diagram in a Simple Polygon
share
Given a set of point sites in a simple polygon, the geodesic farthest-point Voronoi diagram partitions the polygon into cells, at most one cell per site, such that every point in a cell has the same farthest site with respect to the geodesic metric. We present an O(n n+m m)- time algorithm to compute the geodesic farthest-point Voronoi diagram of m point sites in a simple n-gon. This improves the previously best known algorithm by Aronov et al. [Discrete Comput. Geom. 9(3):217-255, 1993]. In the case that all point sites are on the boundary of the simple polygon, we can compute the geodesic farthest-point Voronoi diagram in O((n + m) n) time.
