Configuration spaces of spatial linkages: Taking Collisions Into Account
Abstract
We construct a completed version C(Gamma) of the configuration space of a linkage Gamma in R3 which takes into account the ways one link can touch another. We also describe a simplified version of C(Gamma) which is a blow-up of the space of immersions of Gamma in R3 A number of simple detailed examples are given.
