We present a simple algorithm for computing higher-order Delaunay mosaics that works in Euclidean spaces of any finite dimensions. The algorithm selects the vertices of the order-$k$ mosaic from incrementally constructed lower-order mosaics and uses an algorithm for weighted first-order Delaunay mosaics as a black-box to construct the order-$k$ mosaic from its vertices. Beyond this black-box, the algorithm uses only combinatorial operations, thus facilitating easy implementation. We extend this algorithm to compute higher-order $alpha$-shapes and provide open-source implementations. We present experimental results for properties of higher-order Delaunay mosaics of random point sets.

The order-$k$ Voronoi tessellation of a locally finite set $X subseteq mathbb{R}^n$ decomposes $mathbb{R}^n$ into convex domains whose points have the same $k$ nearest neighbors in $X$. Assuming $X$ is a stationary Poisson point process, we give expl icit formulas for the expected number and total area of faces of a given dimension per unit volume of space. We also develop a relaxed version of discrete Morse theory and generalize by counting only faces, for which the $k$ nearest points in $X$ are within a given distance threshold.
Slicing a Voronoi tessellation in $mathbb{R}^n$ with a $k$-plane gives a $k$-dimensional weighted Voronoi tessellation, also known as power diagram or Laguerre tessellation. Mapping every simplex of the dual weighted Delaunay mosaic to the radius of the smallest empty circumscribed sphere whose center lies in the $k$-plane gives a generalized discrete Morse function. Assuming the Voronoi tessellation is generated by a Poisson point process in $mathbb{R}^n$, we study the expected number of simplices in the $k$-dimensional weighted Delaunay mosaic as well as the expected number of intervals of the Morse function, both as functions of a radius threshold. As a byproduct, we obtain a new proof for the expected number of connected components (clumps) in a line section of a circular Boolean model in $mathbb{R}^n$
We describe a general purpose algorithm for counting simple cycles and simple paths of any length $ell$ on a (weighted di)graph on $N$ vertices and $M$ edges, achieving a time complexity of $Oleft(N+M+big(ell^omega+ellDeltabig) |S_ell|right)$. In thi s expression, $|S_ell|$ is the number of (weakly) connected induced subgraphs of $G$ on at most $ell$ vertices, $Delta$ is the maximum degree of any vertex and $omega$ is the exponent of matrix multiplication. We compare the algorithm complexity both theoretically and experimentally with most of the existing algorithms for the same task. These comparisons show that the algorithm described here is the best general purpose algorithm for the class of graphs where $(ell^{omega-1}Delta^{-1}+1) |S_ell|leq |text{Cycle}_ell|$, with $|text{Cycle}_ell|$ the total number of simple cycles of length at most $ell$, including backtracks and self-loops. On ErdH{o}s-Renyi random graphs, we find empirically that this happens when the edge probability is larger than circa $4/N$. In addition, we show that some real-world networks also belong to this class. Finally, the algorithm permits the enumeration of simple cycles and simple paths on networks where vertices are labeled from an alphabet on $n$ letters with a time complexity of $Oleft(N+M+big(n^ellell^omega+ellDeltabig) |S_ell|right)$. A Matlab implementation of the algorithm proposed here is available for download.

We show how a filtration of Delaunay complexes can be used to approximate the persistence diagram of the distance to a point set in $R^d$. Whereas the full Delaunay complex can be used to compute this persistence diagram exactly, it may have size $O( n^{lceil d/2 rceil})$. In contrast, our construction uses only $O(n)$ simplices. The central idea is to connect Delaunay complexes on progressively denser subsamples by considering the flips in an incremental construction as simplices in $d+1$ dimensions. This approach leads to a very simple and straightforward proof of correctness in geometric terms, because the final filtration is dual to a $(d+1)$-dimensional Voronoi construction similar to the standard Delaunay filtration complex. We also, show how this complex can be efficiently constructed.
A completely well-centered tetrahedral mesh is a triangulation of a three dimensional domain in which every tetrahedron and every triangle contains its circumcenter in its interior. Such meshes have applications in scientific computing and other fiel ds. We show how to triangulate simple domains using completely well-centered tetrahedra. The domains we consider here are space, infinite slab, infinite rectangular prism, cube and regular tetrahedron. We also demonstrate single tetrahedra with various combinations of the properties of dihedral acuteness, 2-well-centeredness and 3-well-centeredness.
