Calculating a relaxed Delaunay Triangulation
The triangles of a planar Delaunay Triangulations are essentially characterized by the property that no triangle's corner is inside another triangle's circumcircle; Delaunay Triangulations can be ...

Is every triangulation the projection of a convex hull
Question:
given the triangulation $T$ of a set $P$ of $n$ points $p_1,\dots,p_n$ in the euclidean plane whose convex hull is a triangle, can we always find a set $Q$ of $n+1$ points $q_0,q_1,\dots,q_n$...

Covering the sphere with an approximately planar grid
Consider a triangulation of a radius $R$ sphere into $n$ triangles. Must $Ω(\sqrt n)$ triangles have $Ω(1)$ relative difference from being an equilateral triangle of area $4πR^2/n$? ($Ω$ is from ...

Existence of a "generic enough" lattice point interior to a lattice triangle
Let $T$ be a lattice triangle in $\Bbb R^2$ (i.e. the convex hull of three noncolinear points in $\Bbb Z^2$), and assume it has at least one interior lattice point. Is it always possible to find a ...

Geometric realization of an abstract triangulation of the plane
Can every abstract simplicial complex whose geometric realization is homeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^2$ be realized by a rectilinear triangulation of the Euclidean plane? Alternatively put, can a curvy (...
