Closest pair of points problem: Time bounds, Linear-time randomized algorithms & Dynamic closest-pair problem

The closest pair of points problem or closest pair problem is a problem of computational geometry: given n {\displaystyle n} points in metric space, find a pair of points with the smallest distance between them. The closest pair problem for points in the Euclidean plane was among the first geometric problems that were treated at the origins of the…
