This paper begins by extending the notion of a combinatorial configuration of points and lines to a combinatorial configuration of points and planes that we refer to as configurations of order $2$. We then proceed to investigate a further…
We present subquadratic algorithms in the algebraic decision-tree model for several \textsc{3Sum}-hard geometric problems, all of which can be reduced to the following question: Given two sets $A$, $B$, each consisting of $n$ pairwise…
Given in the plane a set of points and a set of halfplanes, we consider the problem of computing a smallest subset of halfplanes whose union covers all points. In this paper, we present an $O(n^{4/3}\log^{5/3}n\log^{O(1)}\log n)$-time…
Given a set $ P $ of $n$ points and a set $ H $ of $n$ half-planes in the plane, we consider the problem of computing a smallest subset of points such that each half-plane contains at least one point of the subset. The previously best…
The sliding cubes model is a well-established theoretical framework that supports the analysis of reconfiguration algorithms for modular robots consisting of face-connected cubes. The best algorithm currently known for the reconfiguration…
We propose to design data structures called succinct geometric indexes of negligible space (more precisely, o(n) bits) that, by taking advantage of the n points in the data set permuted and stored elsewhere as a sequence, to support…
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 reexamine fundamental problems from computational geometry in the word RAM model, where input coordinates are integers that fit in a machine word. We develop a new algorithm for offline point location, a two-dimensional analog of sorting…
The theory of quantum algorithms promises unprecedented benefits of harnessing the laws of quantum mechanics for solving certain computational problems. A persistent obstacle to using such algorithms for solving a wide range of real-world…
Combinatorial optimization problems are considered to be an application, where quantum computing can have transformative impact. In the industrial context, job shop scheduling problems that aim at finding the optimal schedule for a set of…
We construct quantum circuits which exactly encode the spectra of correlated electron models up to errors from rotation synthesis. By invoking these circuits as oracles within the recently introduced "qubitization" framework, one can use…
In this paper, we study the many-to-many matching problem on planar point sets with integer coordinates: Given two disjoint sets $R,B \subset [\Delta]^2$ with $|R|+|B|=n$, the goal is to select a set of edges between $R$ and $B$ so that…
Bitmap indexes are frequently used to index multidimensional data. They rely mostly on sequential input/output. Bitmaps can be compressed to reduce input/output costs and minimize CPU usage. The most efficient compression techniques are…
The most general method for encoding quantum information is not to encode the information into a subspace of a Hilbert space, but to encode information into a subsystem of a Hilbert space. Recently this notion has led to a more general…
We show that any embedding of a planar graph can be encoded succinctly while efficiently answering a number of topological queries near-optimally. More precisely, we build on a succinct representation that encodes an embedding of $m$ edges…
Attentional mechanisms are order-invariant. Positional encoding is a crucial component to allow attention-based deep model architectures such as Transformer to address sequences or images where the position of information matters. In this…
We present a protocol for encoding $N$ real numbers stored in $N$ memory registers into the amplitudes of the quantum superposition that describes the state of $\log_2N$ qubits. This task is one of the main steps in quantum machine learning…
We show that $n$ real numbers can be stored in a constant number of real numbers such that each original real number can be fetched in $O(\log n)$ time. Although our result has implications for many computational geometry problems, we show…
Given a set of $m$ points and a set of $n$ lines in the plane, we consider the problem of computing the faces of the arrangement of the lines that contain at least one point. In this paper, we present an $O(m^{2/3}n^{2/3}+(n+m)\log n)$ time…
We introduce a structured quantum search algorithm that leverages entanglement maps and a fixed-point method to minimize oracle query complexity in unsorted datasets. By partitioning qubits into rows based on their entanglement order, the…
