QMUL
Consider a configuration of points in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space
together with a set of constraints
which fix the direction or the distance between some pairs of points.
Basic questions are whether the constraints imply that the configuration
is unique or locally unique up to congruence, and whether it is bounded. I
will describe some solutions
and partial solutions to these questions.
