We study the reverse shortest path problem on disk graphs in the plane. In this problem we consider the proximity graph of a set of $n$ disks in the plane of arbitrary radii: In this graph two disks are connected if the distance between…
We consider the Vertex Cover problem in intersection graphs of axis-parallel rectangles on the plane. We present two algorithms: The first is an EPTAS for non-crossing rectangle families, rectangle families $\calR$ where $R_1 \setminus R_2$…
A purely numerical approach to compact Riemann surfaces starting from plane algebraic curves is presented. The critical points of the algebraic curve are computed via a two-dimensional Newton iteration. The starting values for this…
For a metric space $(X, d)$ and a scale parameter $r \geq 0$, the Vietoris-Rips complex $\mathcal{VR}(X;r)$ is a simplicial complex on vertex set $X$, where a finite set $\sigma \subseteq X$ is a simplex if and only if diameter of $\sigma$…

We describe a provably complete algorithm for the generation of a tight, possibly exact superset of all combinatorially distinct simple n-facet polytopes in R^d, along with their graphs, f-vectors, and face lattices. The technique applies…
We introduce a new invariant defined on the vertices of a given filtered simplicial complex, called codensity, which controls the impact of removing vertices on persistent homology. We achieve this control through the use of an interleaving…
In 2015, Guth proved that if $S$ is a collection of $n$ $g$-dimensional semi-algebraic sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and if $D\geq 1$ is an integer, then there is a $d$-variate polynomial $P$ of degree at most $D$ so that each connected component…

In this paper, we analyze in depth a simplicial decomposition like algorithmic framework for large scale convex quadratic programming. In particular, we first propose two tailored strategies for handling the master problem. Then, we…
Proximity complexes and filtrations are central constructions in topological data analysis. Built using distance functions, or more generally metrics, they are often used to infer connectivity information from point clouds. Here we…
Here, we propose a clustering technique for general clustering problems including those that have non-convex clusters. For a given desired number of clusters $K$, we use three stages to find a clustering. The first stage uses a hybrid…
We compare different analytical and numerical methods for studying the partitions of a finite system into fragments. We propose a new numerical method of exploring the partition space by generating the Markov chains of partitions based on…
Since its introduction to computational geometry by Alt and Godau in 1992, the Fr\'echet distance has been a mainstay of algorithmic research on curve similarity computations. The focus of the research has been on comparing polygonal…
