On kinetic Delaunay triangulations

A near-quadratic bound for unit speed motions

Let P be a collection of n points in the plane, each moving along some straight line at unit speed. We obtain an almost tight upper bound of O(n2+ε), for any ε > 0, on the maximum number of discrete changes that the Delaunay triangulation DT(P) of P experiences during this motion. Our analysis is cast in a purely topological setting, where we only assume that (i) any four points can be co-circular at most three times, and (ii) no triple of points can be collinear more than twice; these assumptions hold for unit speed motions.
