We study the topological complexity, in the sense of Smale, of three enumerative problems in algebraic geometry: finding the 27 lines on cubic surfaces, the 28 bitangents and the 24 inflection points on quartic curves. In particular, we…
Let $G$ be the unit distance graph in the plane. A well-known problem in combinatorial geometry is that of determining the chromatic number of $G$. It is known that $4\le \chi(G)\le 7$. The upper bound of 7 is obtained using tilings of the…
We construct a moduli space of four colorings on planar cubic graphs. More precisely, we introduce the notion of weak Hamiltonian, a generalization of Hamiltonian cycles, and relate it to 4-colorings. Weak Hamiltonians have a form of…
We present linear time {\it in-place} algorithms for several basic and fundamental graph problems including the well-known graph search methods (like depth-first search, breadth-first search, maximum cardinality search), connectivity…
For a given graph $G$, a maximum internal spanning tree of $G$ is a spanning tree of $G$ with maximum number of internal vertices. The Maximum Internal Spanning Tree (MIST) problem is to find a maximum internal spanning tree of the given…
For a set $R$ of $n$ red points and a set $B$ of $n$ blue points, a $BR$-matching is a non-crossing geometric perfect matching where each segment has one endpoint in $B$ and one in $R$. Two $BR$-matchings are compatible if their union is…
In this work, we study the parallel complexity of the Euclidean minimum-weight perfect matching (EWPM) problem. Here our graph is the complete bipartite graph $G$ on two sets of points $A$ and $B$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and the weight of each…
Given an undirected, edge-weighted graph G together with pairs of vertices, called pairs of terminals, the minimum multicut problem asks for a minimum-weight set of edges such that, after deleting these edges, the two terminals of each pair…
We present subquadratic algorithms, in the algebraic decision-tree model of computation, for detecting whether there exists a triple of points, belonging to three respective sets $A$, $B$, and $C$ of points in the plane, that satisfy a…
A path in an edge colored graph is said to be a rainbow path if no two edges on the path have the same color. An edge colored graph is (strongly) rainbow connected if there exists a (geodesic) rainbow path between every pair of vertices.…
In the Exact Matching problem, we are given a graph whose edges are colored red or blue and the task is to decide for a given integer k, if there is a perfect matching with exactly k red edges. Since 1987 it is known that the Exact Matching…
Understanding spatial correlation is vital in many fields including epidemiology and social science. Lee, Meeks and Pettersson (Stat. Comput. 2021) recently demonstrated that improved inference for areal unit count data can be achieved by…
In this work, we solve the problem of finding non-intersecting paths between points on a plane with a new approach by borrowing ideas from geometric topology, in particular, from the study of polygonal schema in mathematics. We use a…

In this paper, we study the (weighted) bichromatic two-center problem on graphs. The input consists of a graph $G$ of $n$ (weighted) vertices and $m$ edges, and a set $\mathcal{P}$ of pairs of distinct vertices, where no vertex appears in…
Topological drawings are natural representations of graphs in the plane, where vertices are represented by points, and edges by curves connecting the points. Topological drawings of complete graphs and of complete bipartite graphs have been…
We provide a simple algorithm for constructing Hamiltonian graph cycles (visiting every vertex exactly once) on a set of arbitrarily large finite subgraphs of aperiodic two-dimensional Ammann-Beenker (AB) tilings. Using this result, and the…
Hypergraph matching has recently become a popular approach for solving correspondence problems in computer vision as it allows to integrate higher-order geometric information. Hypergraph matching can be formulated as a third-order…
We study colorings of the hyperbolic plane, analogously to the Hadwiger-Nelson problem for the Euclidean plane. The idea is to color points using the minimum number of colors such that no two points at distance exactly $d$ are of the same…
In real life, it is always an urge to reach our goal in minimum effort i.e., it should have a minimum constrained path. The path may be shortest route in practical life, either physical or electronic medium. The scenario is to represents…
