The $k$-th power of the adjacency matrix of a simple undirected graph represents the number of walks with length $k$ between pairs of nodes. As a walk where no node repeats, a path is a walk where each node is only visited once. The set of…

A path from s to t on a polyhedral terrain is descending if the height of a point p never increases while we move p along the path from s to t. No efficient algorithm is known to find a shortest descending path (SDP) from s to t in a…

The symplectic Stiefel manifold, denoted by $\mathrm{Sp}(2p,2n)$, is the set of linear symplectic maps between the standard symplectic spaces $\mathbb{R}^{2p}$ and $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. When $p=n$, it reduces to the well-known set of $2n\times…

In most of the shortest path problems like vehicle routing problems and network routing problems, we only need an efficient path between two points source and destination, and it is not necessary to calculate the shortest path from source…

We introduce a simple yet effective sampling-based planner that is tailored for bottleneck pathfinding: Given an implicitly-defined cost map $\mathcal{M}:\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, which assigns to every point in space a real…

In this note, we present an algorithm that yields many new methods for constructing doubly stochastic and symmetric doubly stochastic matrices for the inverse eigenvalue problem. In addition, we introduce new open problems in this area that…

We give bijective results between several variants of lattice paths of length $2n$ (or $2n-2$) and integer compositions of n, all enumerated by the seemingly innocuous formula $4^{n-1}$. These associations lead us to make new connections…

We revisit the inductive matrix completion problem that aims to recover a rank-$r$ matrix with ambient dimension $d$ given $n$ features as the side prior information. The goal is to make use of the known $n$ features to reduce sample and…

Let $W(D_n)$ denote the walk matrix of the Dynkin graph $D_n$, a tree obtained from the path of order $n-1$ by adding a pendant edge at the second vertex. We prove that $\text{rank}\,W(D_n)=n-2$ if $4\mid n$ and $\text{rank}\,W(D_n)=n-1$…

In the directed detour problem one is given a digraph $G$ and a pair of vertices $s$ and~$t$, and the task is to decide whether there is a directed simple path from $s$ to $t$ in $G$ whose length is larger than $\mathsf{dist}_{G}(s,t)$. The…

This article describes a bipedal walking algorithm with inverse kinematics resolution based solely on geometric methods, so that all mathematical concepts are explained from the base, in order to clarify the reason for this solution. To do…

As a real scenes sensing approach, depth information obtains the widespread applications. However, resulting from the restriction of depth sensing technology, the depth map captured in practice usually suffers terrible noise and missing…

In a graph whose vertices are assigned integer ranks, a path is well-ranked if the endpoints have distinct ranks or some interior point has a higher rank than the endpoints. A ranking is an assignment of ranks such that all nontrivial paths…

Due to the computational complexity of finding almost shortest simple paths, we propose that identifying a larger collection of (nonbacktracking) paths is more efficient than finding almost shortest simple paths on positively weighted…

Ordinary maps satisfy topological recursion for a certain spectral curve $(x, y)$. We solve a conjecture from arXiv:1710.07851 that claims that fully simple maps, which are maps with non self-intersecting disjoint boundaries, satisfy…

Many neural learning algorithms require to solve large least square systems in order to obtain synaptic weights. Moore-Penrose inverse matrices allow for solving such systems, even with rank deficiency, and they provide minimum-norm vectors…

When a sequence of numbers is slowly converging, it can be transformed into a new sequence which, under some assumptions, could converge faster to the same limit. One of the most well--known sequence transformation is Shanks transformation…

The Path Contraction and Cycle Contraction problems take as input an undirected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges and an integer $k$ and determine whether one can obtain a path or a cycle, respectively, by performing at most $k$ edge…

Information transfer between triangle meshes is of great importance in computer graphics and geometry processing. To facilitate this process, a smooth and accurate map is typically required between the two meshes. While such maps can…

We propose a new general framework for recovering low-rank structure in optimal transport using Schatten-$p$ norm regularization. Our approach extends existing methods that promote sparse and interpretable transport maps or plans, while…
