Abstract

Motivated by recent work on Delaunay triangulations of hyperbolic surfaces, we consider the minimal number of vertices of such triangulations. First, we show that every hyperbolic surface of genus g has a simplicial Delaunay triangulation with O(g) vertices, where edges are given by distance paths. Then, we construct a class of hyperbolic surfaces for which the order of this bound is optimal. Finally, to give a general lower bound, we show that the Ω(√g) lower bound for the number of vertices of a simplicial triangulation of a topological surface of genus g is tight for hyperbolic surfaces as well.
