The Outerplanar Diameter Improvement problem asks, given a graph $G$ and an integer $D$, whether it is possible to add edges to $G$ in a way that the resulting graph is outerplanar and has diameter at most $D$. We provide a dynamic…

Updating an abstract Voronoi diagram after deletion of one site in linear time has been a well-known open problem; similarly, for concrete Voronoi diagrams of non-point sites. In this paper, we present an expected linear-time algorithm to…

Any system of bisectors (in the sense of abstract Voronoi diagrams) defines an arrangement of simple curves in the plane. We define Voronoi-like graphs on such an arrangement, which are graphs whose vertices are locally Voronoi. A vertex…

Finding the diameter of a graph in general cannot be done in truly subquadratic assuming the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis (SETH), even when the underlying graph is unweighted and sparse. When restricting to concrete classes of graphs…

In this paper, we study the outerplanarity of planar graphs, i.e., the number of times that we must (in a planar embedding that we can initially freely choose) remove the outerface vertices until the graph is empty. It is well-known that…

We present the first optimal randomized algorithm for constructing the order-$k$ Voronoi diagram of $n$ points in two dimensions. The expected running time is $O(n\log n + nk)$, which improves the previous, two-decades-old result of Ramos…
