  2. Monotone polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotone_polygon

    Breaking a polygon into monotone polygons. A simple polygon may be easily cut into monotone polygons in O(n log n) time. However, since a triangle is a monotone polygon, polygon triangulation is in fact cutting a polygon into monotone ones, and it may be performed for simple polygons in O(n) time with a complex algorithm. [6]

  3. Polygonal chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygonal_chain

    A polygonal chain is called monotone if there is a straight line L such that every line perpendicular to L intersects the chain at most once. Every nontrivial monotone polygonal chain is open. In comparison, a monotone polygon is a polygon (a closed chain) that can be partitioned into exactly two monotone chains. [2]

  4. Absolutely and completely monotonic functions and sequences

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolutely_and_completely...

    The notions of completely and absolutely monotone function/sequence play an important role in several areas of mathematics. For example, in classical analysis they occur in the proof of the positivity of integrals involving Bessel functions or the positivity of Cesàro means of certain Jacobi series. [ 6 ]

  5. Polygon triangulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon_triangulation

    A simple polygon is monotone with respect to a line L, if any line orthogonal to L intersects the polygon at most twice. A monotone polygon can be split into two monotone chains. A polygon that is monotone with respect to the y-axis is called y-monotone. A monotone polygon with n vertices can be triangulated in O(n) time. Assuming a given ...

  6. Polygonalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygonalization

    A polygonalization is a simple polygon having a given set of points in the Euclidean plane as its set of vertices. A polygon may be described by a cyclic order on its vertices, which are connected in consecutive pairs by line segments, the edges of the polygon.

  7. Point location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_location

    A monotone planar subdivision with some monotone chains highlighted. A (vertical) monotone chain is a path such that the y-coordinate never increases along the path. A simple polygon is (vertical) monotone if it is formed by two monotone chains, with the first and last vertices in common. It is possible to add some edges to a planar subdivision ...

    Meaning: If you aren't weighing yourself at a consistent time each day, expect to see different numbers on the scale. Eating or drinking anything adds weight, even the healthy stuff.

  9. Simple polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_polygon

    The region inside the polygon (its interior) forms a bounded set [2] topologically equivalent to an open disk by the Jordan–Schönflies theorem, [10] with a finite but nonzero area. [11] The polygon itself is topologically equivalent to a circle, [12] and the region outside (the exterior) is an unbounded connected open set, with infinite area ...
