Abstract
The 3SUM problem represents a class of problems conjectured to require Ω(n2) time to solve, where n is the size of the input. Given two polygons P and Q in R2, we show that some variants of the decision problem, whether there exists a transformation of P that makes it contained in Q, are 3SUM-hard. We also show that finding the translation that minimizes the Hausdorff distance between two segment sets is 3SUM-hard.
