Given an undirected possibly weighted $n$-vertex graph $G=(V,E)$ and a set $\mathcal{P}\subseteq V^2$ of pairs, a subgraph $S=(V,E')$ is called a ${\cal P}$-pairwise $\alpha$-spanner of $G$, if for every pair $(u,v)\in\mathcal{P}$ we have…
In the pairwise weighted spanner problem, the input consists of an $n$-vertex-directed graph, where each edge is assigned a cost and a length. Given $k$ vertex pairs and a distance constraint for each pair, the goal is to find a…
We introduce a setting based on the one-dimensional (1D) nonlinear Schroedinger equation (NLSE) with the self-focusing (SF) cubic term modulated by a singular function of the coordinate, |x|^{-a}. It may be additionally combined with the…
We show that for any finite set $P$ of points in the plane and $\epsilon>0$ there exist $\displaystyle O\left(\frac{1}{\epsilon^{3/2+\gamma}}\right)$ points in ${\mathbb{R}}^2$, for arbitrary small $\gamma>0$, that pierce every convex set…
We study the sublinear multivariate mean estimation problem in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. Specifically, we aim to find the mean $\mu$ of a ground point set $A$, which minimizes the sum of squared Euclidean distances of the points in…
We study the oracle complexity of finding $\varepsilon$-Pareto stationary points in smooth multiobjective optimization with $m$ objectives. Progress is measured by the Pareto stationarity gap $\mathcal{G}(x)$, the norm of the best convex…

Let S be a set of n points and let w be a function that assigns non-negative weights to points in S. The additive weighted distance d_w(p, q) between two points p,q belonging to S is defined as w(p) + d(p, q) + w(q) if p \ne q and it is…

Given an undirected unweighted graph $G = (V, E)$ on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, a subgraph $H\subseteq G$ is a spanner of $G$ with stretch function $f: \mathbb{R}_+ \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+$, if for every pair $s, t$ of vertices in $V$,…

We consider the problem of digitalizing Euclidean segments. Specifically, we look for a constructive method to connect any two points in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. The construction must be {\em consistent} (that is, satisfy the natural extension of…
This paper proves sharp lower bounds on a resonance counting function for obstacle scattering in even-dimensional Euclidean space without a need for trapping assumptions. Similar lower bounds are proved for some other compactly supported…
The Euclidean Steiner Tree Problem (EST) seeks a minimum-cost tree interconnecting a given set of terminal points in the Euclidean plane, allowing the use of additional intersection points. In this paper, we consider two variants that…
We prove that every $n$-point metric space of negative type (and, in particular, every $n$-point subset of $L_1$) embeds into a Euclidean space with distortion $O(\sqrt{\log n} \cdot\log \log n)$, a result which is tight up to the iterated…
We describe an algorithm that takes as input n points in the plane and a parameter {\epsilon}, and produces as output an embedded planar graph having the given points as a subset of its vertices in which the graph distances are a (1 +…
We present a stability result for ground states of a Schr\"odinger-Poisson system in $(2+1)$ dimension, modelling the propagation of a light beam through a liquid crystal with nonlocal nonlinear response. The core of the proof is a…
For any integers $d, n \geq 2$ and $1/({\min\{n,d\}})^{0.4999} < \varepsilon<1$, we show the existence of a set of $n$ vectors $X\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ such that any embedding $f:X\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^m$ satisfying $$ \forall x,y\in X,\…
A spanner of a graph is a subgraph that preserves lengths of shortest paths up to a multiplicative distortion. For every $k$, a spanner with size $O(n^{1+1/k})$ and stretch $(2k+1)$ can be constructed by a simple centralized greedy…
We develop a new simple approach to prove upper bounds for generalizations of the Heilbronn's triangle problem in higher dimensions. Among other things, we show the following: for fixed $d \ge 1$, any subset of $[0, 1]^d$ of size $n$…
