<p>I received a request for <a href="http://mathoverflow.net/questions/37963/lecture-notes-by-thurston-on-tiling" rel="nofollow">another</a> long-lost document:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I am wondering if there is any way I
might obtain a copy of</p>
<p>The geometry of circles: Voronoi
diagrams, Moebius transformations,
convex hulls, Fortune's algorithm, the
cut locus, and parametrization of
shapes W.P. Thurston Technical Report,
Princeton University, 1986. </p>
<p>Is there a scanned version somewhere
or might some library stock it?</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Can anyone help out?</p>
<p>For context: I gave a series of presentations in a EECS course with Dave Dobkin, and I wrote these notes to go with it. It was fun material at the time, but the notes were only moderately distributed.</p>

I haven't yet gone over them to make them compile with a current tex environment, but <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5390048/notes.tex" rel="nofollow">here</a> is a copy as-is. When I have a chance to fix it, I'll substitute a better version and I'll consider whether to put it in a more visible spot.</p>

And here is <code>.pdf</code> produced by compiling that <code>.tex</code>: <a href="http://cs.smith.edu/~orourke/MathOverflow/DTnotes.pdf" rel="nofollow"><code>DTnotes.pdf</code></a>.</p>
