Different types of two- and three-dimensional representations of a finite metric space are studied that focus on the accurate representation of the linear order among the distances rather than their actual values. Lower and upper bounds for…
A variety of algorithms have been proposed for reconstructing trees that show the evolutionary relationships between species by comparing differences in genetic data across present-day taxa. If the leaf-to-leaf distances in a tree can be…
In this work we define a novel edit distance for trees considered with some abstract weights on the edges. The metric is driven by the idea of considering trees as topological summaries in the context of persistence and topological data…
Geodesic distance, sometimes called shortest path length, has proven useful in a great variety of applications, such as information retrieval on networks including treelike networked models. Here, our goal is to analytically determine the…
In this paper, we consider the problem of reconstructing trees from traces in the tree edit distance model. Previous work by Davies et al. (2019) analyzed special cases of reconstructing labeled trees. In this work, we significantly expand…
It is well-known that the height profile of a critical conditioned Galton-Watson tree with finite offspring variance converges, after a suitable normalization, to the local time of a standard Brownian excursion. In this work, we study the…
We describe an algorithm for comparing two RNA secondary structures coded in the form of trees that introduces two new operations, called node fusion and edge fusion, besides the tree edit operations of deletion, insertion, and relabeling…
Compression and sparsification algorithms are frequently applied in a preprocessing step before analyzing or optimizing large networks/graphs. In this paper we propose and study a new framework contracting edges of a graph (merging vertices…
This extended abstract is dedicated to the analysis of the height of non-plane unlabelled rooted binary trees. The height of such a tree chosen uniformly among those of size $n$ is proved to have a limiting theta distribution, both in a…
The minimum linear arrangement problem on a network consists of finding the minimum sum of edge lengths that can be achieved when the vertices are arranged linearly. Although there are algorithms to solve this problem on trees in polynomial…
This report presents a new, algorithmic approach to the distributions of the distance between two points distributed uniformly at random in various polygons, based on the extended Kinematic Measure (KM) from integral geometry. We first…
Rapidly Exploring Random Trees (RRT) is one of the most widely used algorithms for motion planning in the field of robotics. To reduce the exploration time, RRT-Connect was introduced where two trees are simultaneously formed and eventually…
We present two algorithms for computing the geodesic distance between phylogenetic trees in tree space, as introduced by Billera, Holmes, and Vogtmann (2001). We show that the possible combinatorial types of shortest paths between two trees…
In the Distance-constrained Vehicle Routing Problem (DVRP), we are given a graph with integer edge weights, a depot, a set of $n$ terminals, and a distance constraint $D$. The goal is to find a minimum number of tours starting and ending at…
Merge trees are fundamental structures in topological data analysis. Interleaving distance is a widely accepted metric for comparing merge trees, with applications in visualization and scientific computing. While a greedy algorithm exists…
An algorithm is proposed for constructing directed spanning forests of the minimum weight, in which the maximum possible degree of affinity between the minimum forests is preserved when the number of trees changes. The correctness of the…
We present new and improved fixed-parameter algorithms for computing maximum agreement forests (MAFs) of pairs of rooted binary phylogenetic trees. The size of such a forest for two trees corresponds to their subtree prune-and-regraft…
The size of the largest common subtree (maximum agreement subtree) of two independent uniform random binary trees on $n$ leaves is known to be between orders $n^{1/8}$ and $n^{1/2}$. By a construction based on recursive splitting and…
The \emph{distance-number} of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of distinct edge-lengths over all straight-line drawings of $G$ in the plane. This definition generalises many well-known concepts in combinatorial geometry. We consider the…
A flip in a plane spanning tree $T$ is the operation of removing one edge from $T$ and adding another edge such that the resulting structure is again a plane spanning tree. For trees on a set of points in convex position we study two…
