The Fr\'echet distance is a well-studied and very popular measure of similarity of two curves. The best known algorithms have quadratic time complexity, which has recently been shown to be optimal assuming the Strong Exponential Time…

We study the maximum $s,t$-flow oracle problem on planar directed graphs where the goal is to design a data structure answering max $s,t$-flow value (or equivalently, min $s,t$-cut value) queries for arbitrary source-target pairs $(s,t)$.…

We describe a new data structure for dynamic nearest neighbor queries in the plane with respect to a general family of distance functions. These include $L_p$-norms and additively weighted Euclidean distances. Our data structure supports…

We study approximate-near-neighbor data structures for time series under the continuous Fr\'echet distance. For an attainable approximation factor $c>1$ and a query radius $r$, an approximate-near-neighbor data structure can be used to…

We present a new technique for efficiently removing almost all short cycles in a graph without unintentionally removing its triangles. Consequently, triangle finding problems do not become easy even in almost $k$-cycle free graphs, for any…

We consider the problem of finding small distance-preserving subgraphs of undirected, unweighted interval graphs with $k$ terminal vertices. To start with, we show that finding an optimal distance-preserving subgraph is $\mathsf{NP}$-hard…

We report a robust constrain on the possible variation of fine-structure constant, alpha = e^2/(hbar*c), obtained using O III 4959,5007, nebular emission lines from QSOs. We find Delta-alpha/alpha=-(2.1 +/- 1.6) x 10^(-5) based on a well…

Depth first search (DFS) tree is one of the most well-known data structures for designing efficient graph algorithms. Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the textbook algorithm takes $O(n+m)$ time to…

We consider problems of the following type: given a graph $G$, how many edges are needed in the worst case for a sparse subgraph $H$ that approximately preserves distances between a given set of node pairs $P$? Examples include pairwise…

In this paper, we present improved decoding algorithms for expander-based Tanner codes. We begin by developing a randomized linear-time decoding algorithm that, under the condition that $ \delta d_0 > 2 $, corrects up to $ \alpha n $ errors…

Depth first search is a fundamental graph problem having a wide range of applications. For a graph $G=(V,E)$ having $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the DFS tree can be computed in $O(m+n)$ using $O(m)$ space where $m=O(n^2)$. In the streaming…

Given a weighted graph $G=(V,E,w)$, a partition of $V$ is $\Delta$-bounded if the diameter of each cluster is bounded by $\Delta$. A distribution over $\Delta$-bounded partitions is a $\beta$-padded decomposition if every ball of radius…

An essential requirement of spanners in many applications is to be fault-tolerant: a $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner of a metric space is called (vertex) $f$-fault-tolerant ($f$-FT) if it remains a $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner (for the non-faulty points)…

Sparse arrays with $N$-sensors can provide up to $O(N^2)$ degrees of freedom (DOF) by second-order cumulants. However, these sparse arrays like minimum-/low-redundancy arrays (MRAs/LRAs), nested arrays and coprime arrays can only provide…

Computing the diameter of a graph is a problem of great interest both in general algorithms research and specifically within fine-grained complexity, where it is a cornerstone hard problem. Recent work has achieved a full conditional lower…

We study the problem of computing the diameter and the mean distance of a continuous graph, i.e., a connected graph where all points along the edges, instead of only the vertices, must be taken into account. It is known that for continuous…

Length-constrained expander decompositions are a new graph decomposition that has led to several recent breakthroughs in fast graph algorithms. Roughly, an $(h, s)$-length $\phi$-expander decomposition is a small collection of length…

A tree $\sigma$-spanner of a positively real-weighted $n$-vertex and $m$-edge undirected graph $G$ is a spanning tree $T$ of $G$ which approximately preserves (i.e., up to a multiplicative stretch factor $\sigma$) distances in $G$. Tree…

Two recent lower bounds on the compressibility of repetitive sequences, $\delta \le \gamma$, have received much attention. It has been shown that a length-$n$ string $S$ over an alphabet of size $\sigma$ can be represented within the…

In their pioneering work, Chan, Har-Peled, and Jones (SICOMP 2020) introduced locality-sensitive ordering (LSO), and constructed an LSO with a constant number of orderings for point sets in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. Furthermore,…
