Universal Rigidity of Ladders on the Line

In [3] it is shown, answering a question of Jordán and Nguyen [9], that universal rigidity of a generic bar-joint framework in ℝ 1 depends on more than the ordering of the vertices. The graph 𝐺 that was used in that paper is a ladder with three rungs. Here we provide a general answer when that ladder with three rungs in the line is universally rigid and when it is not.

Abstract

In [3] it is shown, answering a question of Jordán and Nguyen [9], that universal rigidity of a generic bar-joint framework in ℝ 1 depends on more than the ordering of the vertices. The graph 𝐺 that was used in that paper is a ladder with three rungs. Here we provide a general answer when that ladder with three rungs in the line is universally rigid and when it is not.
