[Invited Talk] Recent Advances in Theory of Combinatorial Rigidity and Its Applications
Naoki Katoh (KGU) COMP2015-6
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) It is known that the condition m≧2n-3 is necessary for a 2-dimensional bar-joint framework with n pin-joints and and m bars
of fixed lengths to be rigid. Also the condition m≧3n-6 is
necessary for a 3-dimensional bar-joint framework to be rigid. This
is a classical result discovered by Maxwell in 1864. This condition
tells us that the rigidity of a framework relies on its topology
(incidence relationship between joints and bars). In fact, about a
hundred years later, Laman proved in 1970 that the rigidity of a
2-dimensional bar-joint framework is determined by its incidence
relationship. A main theme of combinatorial rigidity theory is to
analyze and clarify the rigidity of certain structural models. The
consequence of combinatorial rigidity theory gives us fundamental
knowledge about structures and since the late 90's it has been
applied to various fields such as mechanical design, dynamic
simulation of proteins, intelligent CAD system, sensor network
localization. In this talk, I will first give a basic theory of
combinatorial rigidity and then touch on applications to the
elucidation of protein functions and to architectural design.
