Many real-world complex systems can be modeled as multiplex networks, where each layer represents a distinct set of interactions among the same entities. Controlling such systems-steering them toward desired states using external inputs-is…
Architecture optimization, which is a technique for finding an efficient neural network that meets certain requirements, generally reduces to a set of multiple-choice selection problems among alternative sub-structures or parameters. The…
Consider the following problem: given a graph with edge costs and a subset Q of vertices, find a minimum-cost subgraph in which there are two edge-disjoint paths connecting every pair of vertices in Q. The problem is a failure-resilient…
We consider node-weighted survivable network design (SNDP) in planar graphs and minor-closed families of graphs. The input consists of a node-weighted undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ and integer connectivity requirements $r(uv)$ for each…
The collection of all the strongly connected components in a directed graph, among each cluster of which any node has a path to another node, is a typical example of the intertwining structure and dynamics in complex networks, as its…
The search is based on the preliminary transformation of matrices or adjacency lists traditionally used in the study of graphs into projections cleared of redundant information (refined) followed by the selection of the desired shortest…
In this article, we study the Euclidean minimum spanning tree problem in an imprecise setup. The problem is known as the \emph{Minimum Spanning Tree Problem with Neighborhoods} in the literature. We study the problem where the neighborhoods…
Bottleneck Steiner networks model energy consumption in wireless ad-hoc networks. The task is to design a network spanning a given set of terminals and at most $k$ Steiner points such that the length of the longest edge is minimised. The…
The Euclidean Steiner tree problem asks to find a min-cost metric graph that connects a given set of \emph{terminal} points $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, possibly using points not in $X$ which are called Steiner points. Even though near-linear…
Vascular networks are used across the kingdoms of life to transport fluids, nutrients and cellular material. A popular unifying idea for understanding the diversity and constraints of these networks is that the conduits making up the…
We study the problem of finding minimum multicuts for an undirected planar graph, where all the terminal vertices are on the boundary of the outer face. This is known as an Okamura-Seymour instance. We show that for such an instance, the…
We consider the Shallow-Light Steiner Network problem from a fixed-parameter perspective. Given a graph $G$, a distance bound $L$, and $p$ pairs of vertices $(s_1,t_1),\cdots,(s_p,t_p)$, the objective is to find a minimum-cost subgraph $G'$…
Given a metric space on n points, an {\alpha}-approximate universal algorithm for the Steiner tree problem outputs a distribution over rooted spanning trees such that for any subset X of vertices containing the root, the expected cost of…
In this article, a variation of the classical Markov-Dubins problem is considered, which deals with curvature-constrained least-cost paths in a plane with prescribed initial and final configurations, different bounds for the sinistral and…
This paper studies a fundamental algorithmic problem related to the design of demand-aware networks: networks whose topologies adjust toward the traffic patterns they serve, in an online manner. The goal is to strike a tradeoff between the…
Given a set $S$ of points in the plane, a geometric network for $S$ is a graph $G$ with vertex set $S$ and straight edges. We consider a broadcasting situation, where one point $r \in S$ is a designated source. Given a dilation factor…
In computer vision, we have the problem of creating graphs out of unstructured point-sets, i.e. the data graph. A common approach for this problem consists of building a triangulation which might not always lead to the best solution. Small…
This paper investigates the problem of planning a minimum-length tour for a three-dimensional Dubins airplane model to visually inspect a series of targets located on the ground or exterior surface of objects in an urban environment.…
We investigate the relation between energy minimizing maps valued into spheres having topological singularities at given points and optimal networks connecting them (e.g. Steiner trees, Gilbert-Steiner irrigation networks). We show the…
We introduce a variant of the multiway cut that we call the min-max connected multiway cut. Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ and a set $\Gamma\subseteq V$ of $t$ terminals, partition $V$ into $t$ parts such that each part is connected and contains…
