We study the NP-hard problem of approximating a Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Tree in the message passing model with limited bandwidth (CONGEST model). In this problem one tries to find a spanning tree of a graph $G$ over $n$ nodes that…
Given an $n$-vertex planar embedded digraph $G$ with non-negative edge weights and a face $f$ of $G$, Klein presented a data structure with $O(n\log n)$ space and preprocessing time which can answer any query $(u,v)$ for the shortest path…
We prove that the single-source shortest-path problem on disk graphs can be solved in $O(n\log n)$ time, and that it can be solved on intersection graphs of fat triangles in $O(n\log^2 n)$ time.
Given a polygon representing a transportation network together with a point p in its interior, we aim to extend the network by inserting a line segment, called a feed-link, which connects p to the boundary of the polygon. Once a feed link…
We present a family of networks, expanded deterministic Apollonian networks, which are a generalization of the Apollonian networks and are simultaneously scale-free, small-world, and highly clustered. We introduce a labeling of their…
We consider the problem of reporting convex hull points in an orthogonal range query in two dimensions. Formally, let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. A point lies on the convex hull of a point set $S$ if it lies on the…
Given a polygonal curve P, a pointset S, and an \epsilon > 0, we study the problem of finding a polygonal curve Q whose vertices are from S and has a Frechet distance less or equal to \epsilon to curve P. In this problem, Q must visit every…
We consider the problem of designing a succinct data structure for {\it path graphs} (which are a proper subclass of chordal graphs and a proper superclass of interval graphs) on $n$ vertices while supporting degree, adjacency, and…
We describe a data structure, called a priority range tree, which accommodates fast orthogonal range reporting queries on prioritized points. Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane, where each point $p$ in $S$ is assigned a weight…
Due to the computational complexity of finding almost shortest simple paths, we propose that identifying a larger collection of (nonbacktracking) paths is more efficient than finding almost shortest simple paths on positively weighted…
We give an algorithm that decides whether the bipartite crossing number of a given graph is at most $k$. The running time of the algorithm is upper bounded by $2^{O(k)} + n^{O(1)}$, where $n$ is the number of vertices of the input graph,…
A labelling of a graph is an assignment of labels to its vertex or edge sets (or both), subject to certain conditions, a well established concept. A labelling of a graph G of order n is termed a numbering when the set of integers {1,...,n}…
The replacement paths problem for directed graphs is to find for given nodes s and t and every edge e on the shortest path between them, the shortest path between s and t which avoids e. For unweighted directed graphs on n vertices, the…
Guarding a polygon with few guards is an old and well-studied problem in computational geometry. Here we consider the following variant: We assume that the polygon is orthogonal and thin in some sense, and we consider a point $p$ to guard a…
This work concerns with proving space lower bounds for graph problems in the streaming model. It is known that computing the length of shortest path between two nodes in the streaming model requires $\Omega(n)$ space, where $n$ is the…
For the first time proposed: a method for representing the projections of a graph in computer memory and a description based on it of a quick search for shortest paths in unweighted dynamic graphs. The spatial complexity of the projection…
We consider the problem of finding a Hamiltonian path with precedence constraints in the form of a partial order on the vertex set. This problem is known as Partially Ordered Hamiltonian Path Problem (POHPP). Here, we study the complexity…
Let $P$ be a simple polygon with $n$ vertices, and let $q \in P$ be a point in $P$. Let $k \in \{0, \dots, n - 1\}$. A point $p \in P$ is $k$-visible from $q$ if and only if the line segment $pq$ crosses the boundary of $P$ at most $k$…
We present new lower bounds that show that a polynomial number of passes are necessary for solving some fundamental graph problems in the streaming model of computation. For instance, we show that any streaming algorithm that finds a…
Given an $n$-vertex planar directed graph with real edge lengths and with no negative cycles, we show how to compute single-source shortest path distances in the graph in $O(n\log^2n/\log\log n)$ time with O(n) space. This is an improvement…
