The splitting number is effective to distinguish the embedded topology of plane curves, and it is not determined by the fundamental group of the complement of the plane curve. In this paper, we give a generalization of the splitting number,…
Image interpolation, or image morphing, refers to a visual transition between two (or more) input images. For such a transition to look visually appealing, its desirable properties are (i) to be smooth; (ii) to apply the minimal required…
We consider geodesic flows between hypersurfaces in $\R^n$. However, rather than consider using geodesics in $\R^n$, which are straight lines, we consider an induced flow using geodesics between the tangent spaces of the hypersurfaces…
A $t$-spanner of a graph is a subgraph that $t$-approximates pairwise distances. The greedy algorithm is one of the simplest and most well-studied algorithms for constructing a sparse spanner: it computes a $t$-spanner with $n^{1+O(1/t)}$…
A generative model based on a continuous-time normalizing flow between any pair of base and target probability densities is proposed. The velocity field of this flow is inferred from the probability current of a time-dependent density that…
To investigate the topological structure of Morse flows on the 2-disk we use the planar graphs as destinguished graph of the flow. We assume, that the flow is transversal to the boundary of the 2-disk. We give a list of all planar graph…
To solve many problems on graphs, graph traversals are used, the usual variants of which are the depth-first search and the breadth-first search. Implementing a graph traversal we consequently reach all vertices of the graph that belong to…
In the area of beyond-planar graphs, i.e. graphs that can be drawn with some local restrictions on the edge crossings, the recognition problem is prominent next to the density question for the different graph classes. For 1-planar graphs,…
A tanglegram consists of two rooted binary trees and a perfect matching between their leaves, and a planar tanglegram is one that admits a layout with no crossings. We show that the problem of generating planar tanglegrams uniformly at…
A data structure is presented that explicitly maintains the graph of a Voronoi diagram of $N$ point sites in the plane or the dual graph of a convex hull of points in three dimensions while allowing insertions of new sites/points. Our…
The C-Planarity problem asks for a drawing of a $\textit{clustered graph}$, i.e., a graph whose vertices belong to properly nested clusters, in which each cluster is represented by a simple closed region with no edge-edge crossings, no…
The essence of Stahl-Gonchar-Rakhmanov theory of symmetric contours as applied to the multipoint Pad\'e approximants is the fact that given a germ of an algebraic function and a sequence of rational interpolants with free poles of the germ,…
It is well-known that every 3-connected planar graph has a unique planar embedding on the sphere. We study the extension to triangulated 1-planar graphs, T1P graphs for short, which admit an embedding in which each edge is crossed at most…
In this paper, we describe an algorithm for fitting an analytic and bandlimited closed or open curve to interpolate an arbitrary collection of points in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. The main idea is to smooth the parametrization of the curve by…
For unweighted graphs, finding isometric embeddings is closely related to decompositions of $G$ into Cartesian products of smaller graphs. When $G$ is isomorphic to a Cartesian graph product, we call the factors of this product a…
We wish to draw attention to an interesting and promising interaction of two theories. On the one hand, it is the theory of \textbf{pseudo-triangulations} which was useful for implicit solution of thecarpenter's rule problem and proved…
We extend the notion of graph homomorphism to cellularly embedded graphs (maps) by designing operations on vertices and edges that respect the surface topology; we thus obtain the first definition of map homomorphism that preserves both the…
We present a new family of zero-field Ising models over $N$ binary variables/spins obtained by consecutive "gluing" of planar and $O(1)$-sized components and subsets of at most three vertices into a tree. The polynomial-time algorithm of…
Optimal linear-time algorithms for testing the planarity of a graph are well-known for over 35 years. However, these algorithms are quite involved and recent publications still try to give simpler linear-time tests. We give a simple…
We propose a variation of the forward--backward splitting method for solving structured monotone inclusions. Our method integrates past iterates and two deviation vectors into the update equations. These deviation vectors bring flexibility…
