We give lower bounds for the combinatorial complexity of the Voronoi diagram of polygonal curves under the discrete Frechet distance. We show that the Voronoi diagram of n curves in R^d with k vertices each, has complexity Omega(n^{dk}) for…
Surprisingly, the order-$k$ Voronoi diagram of line segments had received no attention in the computational-geometry literature. It illustrates properties surprisingly different from its counterpart for points; for example, a single…
We investigate higher-order Voronoi diagrams in the city metric. This metric is induced by quickest paths in the L1 metric in the presence of an accelerating transportation network of axis-parallel line segments. For the structural…
We consider the Voronoi diagram of lines in $\mathbb{R}^3$ under the Euclidean metric, and give a full classification of its structure in the base case of four lines in general position. We first show that the number of vertices in the…
We introduce the inverse Voronoi diagram problem in graphs: given a graph $G$ with positive edge-lengths and a collection $\mathbb{U}$ of subsets of vertices of $V(G)$, decide whether $\mathbb{U}$ is a Voronoi diagram in $G$ with respect to…
We investigate the bounds on algebraic connectivity of graphs subject to constraints on the number of edges, vertices, and topology. We show that the algebraic connectivity for any tree on $n$ vertices and with maximum degree $d$ is bounded…
This thesis addresses the question of the maximal number of $d$-simplices for a simplicial complex which is embeddable into $\mathbb{R}^r$ for some $d \leq r \leq 2d$. A lower bound of $f_d(C_{r + 1}(n)) =…
The aim of this paper is to give upper bounds for the Euclidean minima of abelian fields of odd prime conductor. In particular, these bounds imply Minkowski's conjecture for totally real number fields of conductor p^r, where p is an odd…
In this paper we research a model of multilayer circuits with a single logical layer. We consider $\lambda$-separable graphs as a support for circuits. We establish the Shannon function lower bound $\max \bigl(\frac{2^n}{n}, \frac{2^n (1 -…
In this paper, we use a new method to decrease the parameterized complexity bound for finding the minimum vertex cover of connected max-degree-3 undirected graphs. The key operation of this method is reduction of the size of a particular…
In this paper, we provide an $O(n \mathrm{polylog} n)$ bound on the expected complexity of the randomly weighted Voronoi diagram of a set of $n$ sites in the plane, where the sites can be either points, interior-disjoint convex sets, or…
We investigate the combinatorial complexity of geodesic Voronoi diagrams on polyhedral terrains using a probabilistic analysis. Aronov etal [ABT08] prove that, if one makes certain realistic input assumptions on the terrain, this complexity…
Voronoi diagrams are a fundamental geometric data structure for obtaining proximity relations. We consider collections of axis-aligned orthogonal polyhedra in two and three-dimensional space under the max-norm, which is a particularly…
A graph is called (generically) rigid in R^d if, for any choice of sufficiently generic edge lengths, it can be embedded in R^d in a finite number of distinct ways, modulo rigid transformations. Here, we deal with the problem of determining…
We prove new lower bounds on the modularity of graphs. Specifically, the modularity of a graph $G$ with average degree $\bar d$ is $\Omega(\bar{d}^{-1/2})$, under some mild assumptions on the degree sequence of $G$. The lower bound…
Let g(n) denote the minimum number of edges of a maximal nontraceable graph of order n. Dudek, Katona and Wojda (2003) showed that g(n)\geq\ceil{(3n-2)/2}-2 for n\geq 20 and g(n)\leq\ceil{(3n-2)/2} for n\geq 54 as well as for n\in…
Answering a question of Erd\H{o}s and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il, we show that the maximum number of inclusion-wise minimal vertex cuts in a graph on $n$ vertices is at most $1.8899^n$ for large enough $n$.
We prove crossing number inequalities for geometric graphs whose vertex sets are taken from a d-dimensional grid of volume N and give applications of these inequalities to counting the number of non-crossing geometric graphs that can be…
We study the number of lines in hypergraphs in a more symmetric setting, where both the hypergraph and its complement are considered. In the general case and in some special cases, the lower bounds on the number of lines are much higher…
In this paper, we show that the oriented diameter of any $n$-vertex $2$-connected near triangulation is at most $\lceil{\frac{n}{2}}\rceil$ (except for seven small exceptions), and the upper bound is tight. This extends a result of Wang…
