Let $P$ be a simple polygon with $n$ vertices, and let $q \in P$ be a point in $P$. Let $k \in \{0, \dots, n - 1\}$. A point $p \in P$ is $k$-visible from $q$ if and only if the line segment $pq$ crosses the boundary of $P$ at most $k$…

We study the computability and complexity of the exploration problem in a class of highly dynamic graphs: periodically varying (PV) graphs, where the edges exist only at some (unknown) times defined by the periodic movements of carriers.…

Reachability questions are one of the most fundamental algorithmic primitives in temporal graphs -- graphs whose edge set changes over discrete time steps. A core problem here is the NP-hard Short Restless Temporal Path: given a temporal…

A visibility representation is a classical drawing style of planar graphs. It displays the vertices of a graph as horizontal vertex-segments, and each edge is represented by a vertical edge-segment touching the segments of its end vertices;…
