In the first part of this paper, we enumerate exactly walks on the square lattice that start from the origin, but otherwise avoid the non positive horizontal half-axis. We call them "walks on the slit plane". We count them by their length,…

We present improved deterministic algorithms for approximating shortest paths in the Congested Clique model of distributed computing. We obtain $poly(\log\log n)$-round algorithms for the following problems in unweighted undirected…

We present an algorithm to find an {\it Euclidean Shortest Path} from a source vertex $s$ to a sink vertex $t$ in the presence of obstacles in $\Re^2$. Our algorithm takes $O(T+m(\lg{m})(\lg{n}))$ time and $O(n)$ space. Here, $O(T)$ is the…

We compute the precise logarithmic corrections to mean-field scaling for various quantities describing the uniform spanning tree of the four-dimensional hypercubic lattice $\mathbb{Z}^4$. We are particularly interested in the distribution…

We prove that any distributional limit of finite planar graphs in which the degree of the root has an exponential tail is almost surely recurrent. As a corollary, we obtain that the uniform infinite planar triangulation and quadrangulation…

Despite major advancements in nonlinear programming (NLP) and convex relaxations, most system operators around the world still predominantly use some form of linear programming (LP) approximation of the AC power flow equations. This is…

The main contribution of this paper is a six-step semi-automatic algorithm that obtains a recursion satisfied by a family of determinants by systematically and iteratively applying Laplace expansion to the underlying matrix family. The…

Given any $n \in \mathbb{Z}^{+}$, we constructively prove the existence of covering paths and circuits in the plane which are characterized by the same link length of the minimum-link covering trails for the two-dimensional grid $G_n^2 :=…

Given an undirected graph and two disjoint vertex pairs $s_1,t_1$ and $s_2,t_2$, the Shortest two disjoint paths problem (S2DP) asks for the minimum total length of two vertex disjoint paths connecting $s_1$ with $t_1$, and $s_2$ with…

We present a general technique, based on parametric search with some twist, for solving a variety of optimization problems on a set of semi-algebraic geometric objects of constant complexity. The common feature of these problems is that…

Navigation process is studied on a variant of the Watts-Strogatz small world network model embedded on a square lattice. With probability $p$, each vertex sends out a long range link, and the probability of the other end of this link…

We present efficient algorithms for constructing a shortest path between two states in the Tower of Hanoi graph, and for computing the length of the shortest path. The key element is a finite-state machine which decides, after examining on…

We study spanning trees on Sierpinski graphs (i.e., finite approximations to the Sierpinski gasket) that are chosen uniformly at random. We construct a joint probability space for uniform spanning trees on every finite Sierpinski graph and…

Computing the distance parameters of a network, including the diameter, radius, eccentricities and the all-pairs shortest paths (APSP) is a central problem in distributed computing. This paper investigates he dtistance parameters in the…

\L{}ukasiewicz paths are lattice paths in $\Bbb{N}^2$ starting at the origin, ending on the $x$-axis, and consisting of steps in the set $\{(1,k), k\geq -1\}$. We give generating function and exact value for the number of $n$-length…

In this paper we consider first-passage percolation on certain 1-dimensional periodic graphs, such as the $\Z\times\{0,1,\ldots,K-1\}^{d-1}$ nearest neighbour graph for $d,K\geq1$. We find that both length and weight of minimal-weight paths…

We augment a tree $T$ with a shortcut $pq$ to minimize the largest distance between any two points along the resulting augmented tree $T+pq$. We study this problem in a continuous and geometric setting where $T$ is a geometric tree in the…

Networks that are fragmented into small disconnected components are prevalent in a large variety of systems. These include the secure communication networks of commercial enterprises, government agencies and illicit organizations, as well…

The All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) is a foundational problem in theoretical computer science. Approximating APSP in undirected unweighted graphs has been studied for many years, beginning with the work of Dor, Halperin and Zwick…

Any finite dimensional semisimple algebra A over a field K is isomorphic to a direct sum of finite dimensional full matrix rings over suitable division rings. In this paper we will consider the special case where all division rings are…
