Voronoi tesselation, Dirichlet–Voronoi tesselation, Dirichlet–Voronoi decomposition, Thiessen tesselation

The Dirichlet tesselation defined by a set of points in is the same as the Voronoi diagram of that set . If is a lattice, it is also called the Dirichlet–Voronoi tiling. The straight-line dual of the Dirichlet tesselation is the Delaunay triangulation.
