In graph theory, the longest path problem is the problem of finding a simple path of maximum length in a given graph. For some small classes of graphs, the problem can be solved in polynomial time [2, 4], but it remains NP-hard on general…

Let $V$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. The unit-disk graph $G = (V, E)$ has vertex set $V$ and an edge $e_{uv} \in E$ between vertices $u, v \in V$ if the Euclidean distance between $u$ and $v$ is at most 1. The weight of each edge…

For any fixed measure $H$ that maps graphs to real numbers, the MinH problem is defined as follows: given a graph $G$, an integer $k$, and a target $\tau$, is there a set $S$ of $k$ vertices that can be deleted, so that $H(G - S)$ is at…

The Voronoi diagrams technique was introduced by Cabello to compute the diameter of planar graphs in subquadratic time. We present novel applications of this technique in static, fault-tolerant, and partially-dynamic undirected unweighted…

We investigate the problem of computing the shortest secure path in a Voronoi diagram. Here, a path is secure if it is a sequence of touching Voronoi cells, where each Voronoi cell in the path has a uniform cost of being secured.…

In the GEODETIC SET problem, an input is a (di)graph $G$ and integer $k$, and the objective is to decide whether there exists a vertex subset $S$ of size $k$ such that any vertex in $V(G)\setminus S$ lies on a shortest (directed) path…
