Abstract
While structural width parameters (of the input) belong to the standard toolbox of graph algorithms, it is not the usual case in computational geometry. As a case study we propose a natural extension of the structural graph parameter of clique-width to geometric point configurations represented by their order type. We study basic properties of this clique-width notion, and relate it to the monadic second-order logic of point configurations. As an application, we provide several linear FPT time algorithms for geometric point problems which are NP-hard in general, in the special case that the input point set is of bounded clique-width and the clique-width expression is also given.
