Polygon triangulation. In computational geometry, polygon triangulation is the partition of a polygonal area (simple polygon) P into a set of triangles, [1] i.e., finding a set of triangles with pairwise non-intersecting interiors whose union is P. Triangulations may be viewed as special cases of planar straight-line graphs.
Let be a metric space with distance function .Let be a set of indices and let () be a tuple (indexed collection) of nonempty subsets (the sites) in the space .The Voronoi cell, or Voronoi region, , associated with the site is the set of all points in whose distance to is not greater than their distance to the other sites , where is any index different from .

Conversely, if a polygon is triangulated, the weak dual of the triangulation (a graph with one vertex per triangle and one edge per pair of adjacent triangles) will be a tree and each leaf of the tree will form an ear. Since every tree with more than one vertex has at least two leaves, every triangulated polygon with more than one triangle has ...
The following pseudocode describes a basic implementation of the Bowyer-Watson algorithm. Its time complexity is ().Efficiency can be improved in a number of ways. For example, the triangle connectivity can be used to locate the triangles which contain the new point in their circumcircle, without having to check all of the triangles - by doing so we can decrease time complexity to ().
In geometry, a polygon with holes is an area-connected planar polygon with one external boundary and one or more interior boundaries (holes). [1] Polygons with holes can be dissected into multiple polygons by adding new edges, so they are not frequently needed. An ordinary polygon can be called simply-connected, while a polygon-with-holes is ...

Polygon triangulations may be found in linear time and form the basis of several important geometric algorithms, including a simple approximate solution to the art gallery problem. The constrained Delaunay triangulation is an adaptation of the Delaunay triangulation from point sets to polygons or, more generally, to planar straight-line graphs.
