We introduce and study the \emph{Lattice Distortion Problem} (LDP). LDP asks how "similar" two lattices are. I.e., what is the minimal distortion of a linear bijection between the two lattices? LDP generalizes the Lattice Isomorphism…

We consider the problem of finding a homomorphism from an input digraph $G$ to a fixed digraph $H$. We show that if $H$ admits a weak near unanimity polymorphism $\phi$ then deciding whether $G$ admits a homomorphism to $H$ (HOM($H$)) is…
In supersingular isogeny-based cryptography, the path-finding problem reduces to the endomorphism ring problem. Can path-finding be reduced to knowing just one endomorphism? It is known that a small endomorphism enables polynomial-time…
In the Directed Disjoint Paths problem ($k$-DDP), we are given a digraph $k$ pairs of terminals, and the goal is to find $k$ pairwise vertex-disjoint paths connecting each pair of terminals. Bang-Jensen and Thomassen [SIAM J. Discrete Math.…
In the Vertex Disjoint Paths with Congestion problem, the input consists of a digraph $D$, an integer $c$ and $k$ pairs of vertices $(s_i, t_i)$, and the task is to find a set of paths connecting each $s_i$ to its corresponding $t_i$,…
