We propose a geometric structure induced by any given convex polygon $P$, called $Nest(P)$, which is an arrangement of $\Theta(n^2)$ line segments, each of which is parallel to an edge of $P$, where $n$ denotes the number of edges of $P$.…

The Sparsest Cut is a fundamental optimization problem that has been extensively studied. For planar inputs the problem is in $P$ and can be solved in $\tilde{O}(n^3)$ time if all vertex weights are $1$. Despite a significant amount of…

Selecting appropriate regularization coefficients is critical to performance with respect to regularized empirical risk minimization problems. Existing theoretical approaches attempt to determine the coefficients in order for regularized…

We present two parallel optimization algorithms for a convex function $f$. The first algorithm optimizes over linear inequality constraints in a Hilbert space, $\mathbb H$, and the second over a non convex polyhedron in $\mathbb R^n$. The…

We apply state-of-the-art computational geometry methods to the problem of reconstructing a time-varying sea surface from tide gauge records. Our work builds on a recent article by Nitzke et al.~(Computers \& Geosciences, 157:104920, 2021)…

We show that the lower bound for the optimal directional discrepancy with respect to the class of rectangles in $\mathbb{R}^2$ rotated in a restricted interval of directions $[-\theta, \theta]$ with $\theta < \frac{\pi}{4}$ is of the order…

Given a planar undirected n-vertex graph G with non-negative edge weights, we show how to compute, for given vertices s and t in G, a min st-cut in G in O(n loglog n) time and O(n) space. The previous best time bound was O(n log n).

Given a simple polygon $P$ consisting of $n$ vertices, we study the problem of designing space-efficient algorithms for computing (i) the visibility polygon of a point inside $P$, (ii) the weak visibility polygon of a line segment inside…

The Euclidean Steiner Minimal Tree problem takes as input a set $\mathcal P$ of points in the Euclidean plane and finds the minimum length network interconnecting all the points of $\mathcal P$. In this paper, in continuation to the works…

We prove the existence of an algorithm $A$ for computing 2-d or 3-d convex hulls that is optimal for every point set in the following sense: for every sequence $\sigma$ of $n$ points and for every algorithm $A'$ in a certain class…

Let $P$ be a convex polyhedron and $Q$ be a convex polygon with $n$ vertices in total in three-dimensional space. We present a deterministic algorithm that finds a translation vector $v \in \mathbb{R}^3$ maximizing the overlap area $|P \cap…

In this paper we present new data structures for two extensively studied variants of the orthogonal range searching problem. First, we describe a data structure that supports two-dimensional orthogonal range minima queries in $O(n)$ space…

We study a path-planning problem amid a set $\mathcal{O}$ of obstacles in $\mathbb{R}^2$, in which we wish to compute a short path between two points while also maintaining a high clearance from $\mathcal{O}$; the clearance of a point is…

Convex optimization is the powerhouse behind the theory and practice of optimization. We introduce a quantum analogue of unconstrained convex optimization: computing the minimum eigenvalue of a Schr\"odinger operator $h = -\Delta + V $ with…

We propose a new method for robust PCA -- the task of recovering a low-rank matrix from sparse corruptions that are of unknown value and support. Our method involves alternating between projecting appropriate residuals onto the set of…

Prune-and-search is an important paradigm for solving many important geometric problems. We show that the general prune-and-search technique can be implemented where the objects are given in read-only memory. As examples we consider…

A highway H is a line in the plane on which one can travel at a greater speed than in the remaining plane. One can choose to enter and exit H at any point. The highway time distance between a pair of points is the minimum time required to…

The convex hull of a data set $P$ is the smallest convex set that contains $P$. In this work, we present a new data structure for convex hull, that allows for efficient dynamic updates. In a dynamic convex hull implementation, the following…

An important step in the efficient computation of multi-dimensional theta functions is the construction of appropriate symplectic transformations for a given Riemann matrix assuring a rapid convergence of the theta series. An algorithm is…

In this paper, we consider the rectilinear one-center problem on uncertain points in the plane. In this problem, we are given a set $P$ of $n$ (weighted) uncertain points in the plane and each uncertain point has $m$ possible locations each…
