In 1991, he coauthored with Frances Yao and others a paper on horizon theorems for lines and polygons in “Discrete and Computational Geometry: Papers from the
DIMACS Special Year”, DIMACS Ser. Discrete Math. and Theoretical Computer Science 6; since Yao coauthored with Fan Chung Graham, Ronald Graham, Stanisław Ulam and Erdős “Minimal decompositions of two graphs into pairwise isomorphic subgraphs” in Proceedings of the Tenth Southeastern Conference on Combinatorics, Graph Theory and Computing in 1979, Eppstein has Erdős number 2.
