Gabriel Triangulations and Angle-Monotone Graphs: Local Routing and Recognition

摘要

A geometric graph is angle-monotone if every pair of vertices has a path between them that-after some rotation-is x- and y-monotone. Angle-monotone graphs are 2~(1/2)-spanners and they are increasing-chord graphs. Dehkordi, Frati, and Gudmundsson introduced angle-monotone graphs in 2014 and proved that Gabriel triangulations are angle-monotone graphs. We give a polynomial time algorithm to recognize angle-monotone geometric graphs. We prove that every point set has a plane geometric graph that is. generalized angle-monotone-specifically, we prove that the half-θ_6-graph is generalized angle-monotone. We give a local routing algorithm for Gabriel triangulations that finds a path from any vertex s to any vertex t whose length is within 1 + 2~(1/2) times the Euclidean distance from s to t. Finally, we prove some lower bounds and limits on local routing algorithms on Gabriel triangulations.
