Chan, Har-Peled, and Jones [SICOMP 2020] developed locality-sensitive orderings (LSO) for Euclidean space. A $(\tau,\rho)$-LSO is a collection $\Sigma$ of orderings such that for every $x,y\in\mathbb{R}^d$ there is an ordering…

Chan, Har-Peled, and Jones [2020] recently developed locality-sensitive ordering (LSO), a new tool that allows one to reduce problems in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ to the $1$-dimensional line. They used LSO's to solve a host of…

For any constant $d$ and parameter $\varepsilon > 0$, we show the existence of (roughly) $1/\varepsilon^d$ orderings on the unit cube $[0,1)^d$, such that any two points $p,q\in [0,1)^d$ that are close together under the Euclidean metric…
