When Triangulating monotone polygons, how can diagonals be added to a DCEL in constant time?

I am working on the polygon triangulation algorithms from "Computational Geometry - Algorithms and applications 3rd ed", chapter 4. I've managed to turn polygons into y-monotone polygons ...

Sort half-edges around common vertex in 3d

I'm trying to figure out this problem for very long time and am no getting nowhere. I'm working on a simple 3d modeler that uses half-edge data structure. Say I have non-manifold geometry where two ...

Given a DCEL, how do you identify the unbounded face

I have constructed a DCEL using the procedure described in How do I construct a doubly connected edge list given a set of line segments?. This correctly identifies all faces, however I'm struggling ...

DCEL with dynamic graph

Is doubly-connected edge list a good data-structure for planar graph which vertices can be moved freely? I experienced DCEL as a very good structure when it comes to add/delete some vertex or edge. ...

How do I visit all edges incident to a vertex in a DCEL data structure?

In a doubly-connected edge list (DCEL) data structure, each vertex v stores a pointer to one arbitrary half-edge, v.inc, which ...

How do you find out if the polygon lies to the right of a regular vertex?

In section 3.2 of the book Computational Geometry: Algorithms and Applications (by Berg et al.), the authors describe a procedure to make a polygon y-monotone. The algorithm distinguishes vertices ...

Problem with storing an existing triangulation in a DCEL

I am trying to store an existing 2D triangulation (of which I have all of the vertices and edges) in a DCEL data structure. Using the algorithm described in this answer, I was able to store a part ...

How do I construct a doubly connected edge list given a set of line segments?

For a given planar graph $G(V,E)$ embedded in the plane, defined by a set of line segments $E= \left \{ e_1,...,e_m \right \} $, each segment $e_i$ is represented by its endpoints $\left \{ L_i,R_i \...
