title = "Visibility and intersection problems in plane geometry",
abstract = "We develop new data structure! for solving various visibility and intersection problems about a simple polygon P on n vertices. Among our results are a simple 0(nlog n) algorithm for computing the illuminated subpolygon of P from a luminous side, and an 0(log n) algorithm for determining which side of P is first hit by a bullet fired from a point in a certain direction. The latter method requires preprocessing on P which take time 0(n log n) and space 0(n). Our main new tool in attacking these problems is geometric duality on the two-sided plane.",
