A Pseudopolynomial Algorithm for Alexandrov's Theorem
  Alexandrov's Theorem states that every metric with the global topology and local geometry required of a convex polyhedron is in fact the intrinsic metric of a unique convex polyhedron. Recent work by Bobenko and Izmestiev describes a differential equation whose solution leads to the polyhedron corresponding to a given metric. We describe an algorithm based on this differential equation to compute the polyhedron to arbitrary precision given the metric, and prove a pseudopolynomial bound on its running time. Along the way, we develop pseudopolynomial algorithms for computing shortest paths and weighted Delaunay triangulations on a polyhedral surface, even when the surface edges are not shortest paths.
