Reference: Packing under translation is in NP

I am looking for a reference for a result that I am aware of. Let me describe the result. Given a polygon $C$ and polygons $p_1,\ldots,p_n$, it can be decided in NP time, if $p_1,\ldots,p_n$ can be ...

Projection of a polytope along 4 orthogonal axes

Consider the following problem: Given an $\mathcal{H}$-polytope $P$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $4$ orthogonal vectors $v_1, ..., v_4 \in \mathbb{R}^d$, compute the projection of $P$ to the subspace ...

Complexity of a weirdo two-dimensional sorting problem

Please forgive me if this is easy for some reason. Suppose given $S$, a set of $n^2$ points in $\mathbb{R}^2$. I want to choose a bijective map $f$ from $S$ to the set of lattice points in $\lbrace ...

Construction of an integral point set given the set of distances, its minimal description to get a measure of its complexity and its unique identifier

Given a set of distances between every pair of points of an integral point set $P$ of $n$ points; say $D = \{{d_i}\}$. Q1. What is the least time complexity possible/known for recreating the ...
