摘要
Given a set S of n disjoint convex polygons {P-i \ 1 less than or equal to i less than or equal to n} in a plane, each with k(i) vertices, the transversal problem is to determine whether there exists a straight line that goes through every polygon in S. We show that the transversal problem can be solved in O(N + n log n) time, where N = Sigma(i)(n) (= 1) k(i) is the total number of vertices of the polygons. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
