Synopsis:

We describe optimal robust algorithms for finding a triangle and the unweighted girth in a unit disk graph, as well as finding a triangle in a transmission graph. In the robust setting, the input is not given as a set of sites in the plane, but rather as an abstract graph. The input may or may not be realizable as a unit disk graph or a transmission graph.  If the graph is realizable, the algorithm is guaranteed to give the correct answer. If not, the algorithm will either give a correct answer or correctly state that the input is not of the required type.
