We present a structure in external memory for "top-k range reporting", which uses linear space, answers a query in O(lg_B n + k/B) I/Os, and supports an update in O(lg_B n) amortized I/Os, where n is the input size, and B is the block size.…
We revisit the vertex-failure connectivity oracle problem. This is one of the most basic graph data structure problems under vertex updates, yet its complexity is still not well-understood. We essentially settle the complexity of this…
We consider the following problem: Preprocess a set $\mathcal{S}$ of $n$ axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ so that given a query of an axis-parallel box in $\mathbb{R}^d$, the pairs of boxes of $\mathcal{S}$ whose intersection…

This paper considers fully dynamic graph algorithms with both faster worst case update time and sublinear space. The fully dynamic graph connectivity problem is the following: given a graph on a fixed set of n nodes, process an online…
Conditional lower bounds for dynamic graph problems has received a great deal of attention in recent years. While many results are now known for the fully-dynamic case and such bounds often imply worst-case bounds for the partially dynamic…

Tucker decomposition has been widely used in a variety of applications to obtain latent factors of tensor data. In these applications, a common need is to compute Tucker decomposition for a given time range. Furthermore, real-world tensor…
We present a dynamic data structure that maintains a tree decomposition of width at most $9k+8$ of a dynamic graph with treewidth at most $k$, which is updated by edge insertions and deletions. The amortized update time of our data…
A Random Access query to a string $T\in [0..\sigma)^n$ asks for the character $T[i]$ at a given position $i\in [0..n)$. In $O(n\log\sigma)$ bits of space, this fundamental task admits constant-time queries. While this is optimal in the…
Given a string $S$ of $n$ integers in $[0,\sigma)$, a range minimum query RMQ$(i, j)$ asks for the index of the smallest integer in $S[i \dots j]$. It is well known that the problem can be solved with a succinct data structure of size $2n +…

In this paper we consider the following modification of the iterative search problem. We are given a tree $T$, so that a dynamic catalog $C(v)$ is associated with every tree node $v$. For any $x$ and for any node-to-root path $\pi$ in $T$,…
Given a simple polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices, we consider the problem of constructing a data structure for visibility queries: for any query point $q \in P$, compute the visibility polygon of $q$ in $P$. To obtain $O(\log n + k)$ query…
We consider a variant of two-point Euclidean shortest path query problem: given a polygonal domain, build a data structure for two-point shortest path query, provided that query points always lie on the boundary of the domain. As a main…
