The D1-Triangulation of Rn for Simplicial Algorithms for Computing Solutions of Nonlinear Equations

Chuangyin Dang · Mathematics of Operations Research · 1991

We present a new triangulation of ℝ n , which is called the D 1 -triangulation, for computing zero points or fixed points of nonlinear mappings. The D 1 -triangulation subdivides the unit cube and is based on very elementary pivot rules. We compare the D 1 -triangulation to several well-known triangulations of ℝ n which triangulate the unit cube. According to several measures of efficiency the new triangulation is superior, such as the number of simplices in the unit cube, the diameter of a triangulation, the average directional density, and the surface density.
