We investigate the problem of computing the top-$k$ simple shortest paths in weighted digraphs. While the single-pair variant -- finding the top-$k$ simple shortest paths between two specified vertices -- has been extensively studied over…
Standard sweep algorithms require an order of discrete points in Euclidean space, and rely on the property that, at a given point, all points in the halfspace below come earlier in this order. We are motivated by the problem of…
The dynamical low-rank (DLR) approximation is an efficient technique to approximate the solution to matrix differential equations. Recently, the DLR method was applied to radiation transport calculations to reduce memory requirements and…
In this paper we introduce a new algorithm for the \emph{$k$-Shortest Simple Paths} (\kspp{k}) problem with an asymptotic running time matching the state of the art from the literature. It is based on a black-box algorithm due to…
Algorithmic methods for the explicit inversion of the indefinite double covering maps are proposed. These are based on either the Givens decomposition or the polar decomposition of the given matrix in the proper, indefinite orthogonal group…
In this article we introduce the insertion method for reconstructing the path from its signature, i.e. inverting the signature of a path. For this purpose, we prove that a converging upper bound exists for the difference between the…
In this paper, a reduced-rank scheme with joint iterative optimization is presented for direction of arrival estimation. A rank-reduction matrix and an auxiliary reduced-rank parameter vector are jointly optimized to calculate the output…
We develop a computationally efficient and robust algorithm for generating pseudo-random samples from a broad class of smooth probability distributions in one and two dimensions. The algorithm is based on inverse transform sampling with a…
Inversion of a directed graph $D$ with respect to a vertex subset $Y$ is the directed graph obtained from $D$ by reversing the direction of every arc whose endpoints both lie in $Y$. More generally, the inversion of $D$ with respect to a…
We present a new bijection between variants of $m$-Dyck paths (paths with steps in $\{+1,-m\}$ starting and ending at height $0$ and remaining at non-negative height), which generalizes a classical bijection between Dyck prefixes and…
We present a new automated method for finding integrable symplectic maps of the plane. These dynamical systems possess a hidden symmetry associated with an existence of conserved quantities, i.e. integrals of motion. The core idea of the…
We give a bijective proof of a conjecture of Regev and Vershik on the equality of two multisets of hook numbers of certain skew-Young diagrams. The bijection proves a result that is stronger and more symmetric than the original conjecture,…
Finding two disjoint simple paths on two given sets of points is a geometric problem introduced by Jeff Erickson. This problem has various applications in computational geometry, like robot motion planning, generating polygon etc. We will…
We present an algorithmic equivalent statement to the Jacobian conjecture. Given a polynomial map F on an affine space of dimension n, our algorithm constructs n sequences of polynomials such that F is invertible if and only if the zero…
Dyck paths are one of the most important objects in enumerative combinatorics, and there are many papers devoted to counting selected families of Dyck paths. Here we present two approaches for the automatic counting of many such families,…
Singular value decomposition (SVD) and matrix inversion are ubiquitous in scientific computing. Both tasks are computationally demanding for large scale matrices. Existing algorithms can approximatively solve these problems with a given…
Skew Dyck paths without up-down-left are enumerated. In a second step, the number of contiguous subwords 'up-down-left' are counted. This explains and extends results that were posted in the Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.
Let ${\mathcal C}$ be a proper minor-closed family of graphs. We present a randomized algorithm that given a graph $G \in {\mathcal C}$ with $n$ vertices, finds a simple cycle of size $k$ in $G$ (if exists) in $2^{O(k)}n$ time. The…
In this paper, we consider a transformation of $k$ disjoint paths in a graph. For a graph and a pair of $k$ disjoint paths $\mathcal{P}$ and $\mathcal{Q}$ connecting the same set of terminal pairs, we aim to determine whether $\mathcal{P}$…
The problem of finding multiple simple shortest paths in a weighted directed graph $G=(V,E)$ has many applications, and is considerably more difficult than the corresponding problem when cycles are allowed in the paths. Even for a single…
