英文摘要：

We describe conditions under which an appropriately-defined anisotropic Voronoi diagram of a set of sites in Euclidean space is guaranteed to be composed of connected cells in any number of dimensions. These conditions are natural for problems in optimization and approximation, and algorithms already exist to produce sets of sites that satisfy them.

Duals of Orphan-Free Anisotropic Voronoi Diagrams are Triangulations

We show that, under mild conditions on the underlying metric, duals of appropriately defined anisotropic Voronoi diagrams are embedded triangulations. Furthermore, they always triangulate the convex hull of the vertices, and have other properties that parallel those of ordinary Delaunay triangulations. These results apply to the duals of anisotropic Voronoi diagrams of any set of vertices, so long as the diagram is orphan-free.

On the Embeddability of Delaunay Triangulations in Anisotropic, Normed, and Bregman Spaces

Given a two-dimensional space endowed with a divergence function that is convex in the first argument, continuously differentiable in the second, and satisfies suitable regularity conditions at Voronoi vertices, we show that orphan-freedom (the absence of disconnected Voronoi regions) is sufficient to ensure that Voronoi edges and vertices are also connected, and that the dual is a simple planar graph. We then prove that the straight-edge dual of an orphan-free Voronoi diagram (with sites as the first argument of the divergence) is always an embedded triangulation. Among the divergences covere…

Practical Conditions for Well-behaved-ness of Anisotropic Voronoi Diagrams

Recently, simple conditions for well-behaved-ness of anisotropic Voronoi diagrams have been proposed. While these conditions ensure well-behaved-ness of two types of practical anisotropic Voronoi diagrams, as well as the geodesic-distance one, in any dimension, they are both prohibitively expensive to evaluate, and not well-suited for typical problems in approximation or optimization. We propose simple conditions that can be efficiently evaluated, and are better suited to practical problems of approximation and optimization. The practical utility of this analysis is enhanced by the fact that o…

Anisotropic triangulations via discrete Riemannian Voronoi diagrams

The construction of anisotropic triangulations is desirable for various applications, such as the numerical solving of partial differential equations and the representation of surfaces in graphics. To solve this notoriously difficult problem in a practical way, we introduce the discrete Riemannian Voronoi diagram, a discrete structure that approximates the Riemannian Voronoi diagram. This structure has been implemented and was shown to lead to good triangulations in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and on surfaces embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$ as detailed in our experimental companion paper. In this paper, we stud…

Gradient of the Objective Function for an Anisotropic Centroidal Voronoi Tessellation (CVT) - A revised, detailed derivation

In their recent article (2010), Levy and Liu introduced a generalization of Centroidal Voronoi Tessellation (CVT) - namely the Lp-CVT - that allows the computation of an anisotropic CVT over a sound mathematical framework. In this article a new objective function is defined, and both this function and its gradient are derived in closed-form for surfaces and volumes. This method opens a wide range of possibilities, also described in the paper, such as quad-dominant surface remeshing, hex-dominant volume meshing or fully-automated capturing of sharp features. However, in the same paper, the deri…
