The Tile Assembly Model is a Turing universal model that Winfree introduced in order to study the nanoscale self-assembly of complex (typically aperiodic) DNA crystals. Winfree exhibited a self-assembly that tiles the first quadrant of the…
The Gilbert-Pollak Conjecture \citep{gilbert1968steiner}, also known as the Steiner Ratio Conjecture, states that for any finite point set in the Euclidean plane, the Steiner minimum tree has length at least $\sqrt{3}/2 \approx 0.866$ times…

Zwick's $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximation algorithm for the All Pairs Shortest Path (APSP) problem runs in time $\widetilde{O}(\frac{n^\omega}{\varepsilon} \log{W})$, where $\omega \le 2.373$ is the exponent of matrix multiplication and $W$…
CAT(0) metric spaces constitute a far-reaching common generalization of Euclidean and hyperbolic spaces and simple polygons: any two points x and y of a CAT(0) metric space are connected by a unique shortest path {\gamma}(x,y). In this…

Base polytopes of polymatroids, also known as generalized permutohedra, are polytopes whose edges are parallel to a vector of the form $\mathbf{e}_i - \mathbf{e}_j$. We consider the following computational problem: Given two vertices of a…

There is a well-known relationship between the binary Pascal's triangle and Sierpinski triangle in which the latter obtained from the former by successive modulo 2 additions on one of its corners. Inspired by that, we define a binary…

We study the problem of computing a shortest tour that visits a sequence of $k$ polygons $P_1,\dots, P_k$ with a total number of $n$ vertices. A tour is an oriented curve such that there exist points $p_i\in P_i$ for all $i$ where $p_i$…
