Abstract: We present a uniform approach to problems involving lines in
3-space. This approach is based on mapping lines in R
3
into points
and hyperplanes in 5-dimensional projective space (Plucker space).
We obtain new results on the following problems:
1. Preprocess n triangles so as to efficiently answer the query:
"Given a ray, which is the first triangle hit?" (Ray-shooting
problem). We discuss the ray-shooting problem for both disjoint
and non-disjoint triangles.
2. Construct the... (Update)

...but hard for polyhedra. The fastest algorithm for deciding whether two static nonconvex polyhedra intersect, due to Pellegrini, runs in ) [31]. For polyhedral terrains, the time bound can be improved to O(n 4 3 # ) 7] Pellegrini s algorithm was generalized by Schomer and...
...and only if Q e intersects P . This intersection problem can be solved in O(n ) time, using simplex range searching data structures [231, 246]. Plugging this into the parametric searching machinery, we can compute, in O(n ) time, the first intersection of Q with P as Q moves...
