Abstract

Let A and B be two sets of points in Rd, where |A| = |B| = n and the distance between them is defined by some bipartite measure dist(A, B). We study several problems in which the goal is to translate the set B, so that dist(A, B) is minimized. The main measures that we consider are (i) the diameter in two and three dimensions, that is diam(A, B) = max{d(a, b) | a ∈ A, b ∈ B}, where d(a, b) is the Euclidean distance between a and b, (ii) the uniformity in the plane, that is uni(A, B) = diam(A, B) − d(A, B), where d(A, B) = min{d(a, b) | a ∈ A, b ∈ B}, and (iii) the union width in two and three dimensions, that is union_width(A, B) = width(A ∪ B).
