A simple method to produce a random order type is to take the order type of a random point set. We conjecture that many probability distributions on order types defined in this way are heavily concentrated and therefore sample inefficiently…
Ordered matchings, defined as graphs with linearly ordered vertices, where each vertex is connected to exactly one edge, play a crucial role in the area of ordered graphs and their homomorphisms. Therefore, we consider related problems from…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ labeled points in the plane. The radial system of $P$ describes, for each $p\in P$, the order in which a ray that rotates around $p$ encounters the points in $P \setminus \{p\}$. This notion is related to the order…
We examine ordered graphs, defined as graphs with linearly ordered vertices, from the perspective of homomorphisms (and colorings) and their complexities. We demonstrate the corresponding computational and parameterized complexities, along…
Let $A$ and $B$ be finite ordered sets. We show that if the ordered sets of isotone self-maps $A^A$ and $B^B$ (ordered pointwise) are isomorphic, then $A$ and $B$ are isomorphic. This resolves a question originating with D. Duffus in 1978,…
A type system combining type application, constants as types, union types (associative, commutative and idempotent) and recursive types has recently been proposed for statically typing path polymorphism, the ability to define functions that…
Consider an ordered point set $P = (p_1,\ldots,p_n)$, its order type (denoted by $\chi_P$) is a map which assigns to every triple of points a value in $\{+,-,0\}$ based on whether the points are collinear(0), oriented clockwise(-) or…
We show that there is a dense set $\ourset\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ of group orders and a constant $c$ such that for every $n\in \ourset$ we can decide in time $O(n^2(\log n)^c)$ whether two $n\times n$ multiplication tables describe isomorphic…
Two labeled point configurations $\{p_1,\ldots,p_n\}$ and $\{q_1,\ldots,q_n\}$ are of the same order type if, for every $i,j,k$, the triples $(p_i,p_j,p_k)$ and $(q_i,q_j,q_k)$ have the same orientation. In the 1980's, Goodman, Pollack and…
For the finite ordered sets $A, D$, write $A^D$ for the ordered set of isotone maps $D \to A$ with the pointwise order. It was proved in earlier work that the order structure of $A^A$ determines~$A$ up to isomorphism. In this note we extend…
This paper studies tree-automatic ordinals (or equivalently, well-founded linearly ordered sets) together with the ordinal addition operation +. Informally, these are ordinals such that their elements are coded by finite trees for which the…
It is unknown whether two graphs can be tested for isomorphism in polynomial time. A classical approach to the Graph Isomorphism Problem is the d-dimensional Weisfeiler-Lehman algorithm. The d-dimensional WL-algorithm can distinguish many…
Graph isomorphism problem is a known hard problem. In this paper, a novel randomized algorithm is proposed for this problem which is very simple and fast. It solves the graph isomorphism problem with running time O(n^2.373) for any pair of…
The higher order matching problem is the problem of determining whether a term is an instance of another in the simply typed $\lambda$-calculus, i.e. to solve the equation a = b where a and b are simply typed $\lambda$-terms and b is…
We present the first explicit comparison-based algorithm that sorts the sumset $X + Y = \{x_i + y_j,\ \forall 0 \le i, j < n\}$, where $X$ and $Y$ are sorted arrays of real numbers, in optimal $O(n^2)$ time and comparisons. While Fredman…
We study the complexity of isomorphism problems for d-way arrays, or tensors, under natural actions by classical groups such as orthogonal, unitary, and symplectic groups. Such problems arise naturally in statistical data analysis and…
We establish the following two main results on order types of points in general position in the plane (realizable simple planar order types, realizable uniform acyclic oriented matroids of rank $3$): (a) The number of extreme points in an…
An algorithm for solving first order ODEs, by systematically determining symmetries of the form [ xi = F(x), eta = P(x) y + Q(x) ], where xi d/dx + eta d/dy is the symmetry generator - is presented. To these {\it linear} symmetries one can…
Given two point sets S and T, we study the many-to-many matching with demands problem (MMD problem) which is a generalization of the many-to-many matching problem (MM problem). In an MMD, each point of one set must be matched to a given…
Provided n points in an (n-1)-dimensional affine space, and one ordering of the points for each coordinate, we address the problem of testing whether these orderings determine if the points are the vertices of a simplex (i.e. are affinely…
