[comp.theory] Looking for an algorithm

chen@shinobu.ics.osaka-u.junet (Chen Wei) (03/19/90)

 I am Wei Chen.I am a graduate student in Oosaka University,
Japan.
 I am working at the problems about finding intersections
of polygons recently. It was known the problem of testing
whether two n-vertex simple polygons intersect can be sloved
in time O(nlogn) and the lower bound of time for computing
this intersection is c*(nlogn+k)
(c is constant,k is the number of vertices of intersection).
But it seems there isn't any algorithm for computing inter-
section of two n-vertex simply polygons. if who knows it ,
please tell me. No matter how much time it uses and no matter
sequential algorithm or parallel algorithm.
 Thank you.
