Rigidity of the Delaunay triangulations of the plane
Song Dai, Tianqi Wu · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2023
We proved a rigidity result for Delaunay triangulations of the plane under Luo's discrete conformal change, extending previous results on hexagonal triangulations. Our result is a discrete analogue of the conformal rigidity of the plane. We followed Zhengxu He's analytical approach in his work on the rigidity of disk patterns, and developed a discrete Schwarz lemma and a discrete Liouville theorem. The main tools include conformal modulus, discrete extremal length, and maximum principles in discrete conformal geometry.
