    <abstract>A polygonal chain is a sequence of consecutively joined edges embedded in space. A k-chain is a chain of k edges. A polygonal tree is a set of edges joined into a tree structure embedded in space. A unit tree is a tree with only edges of unit lenght. A chain or a tree is simple if non-adjacent edges do not intersect. ...</abstract>
