Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^3$ whose closure $\overline{\Omega}$ is polyhedral, and let $\mathcal{T}$ be a triangulation of $\overline{\Omega}$. Assuming that the boundary of $\Omega$ is sufficiently regular, we provide…

The orbit problem is at the heart of symmetry reduction methods for model checking concurrent systems. It asks whether two given configurations in a concurrent system (represented as finite strings over some finite alphabet) are in the same…

This paper deals with circulant matrices. It is shown that a circulant matrix can be multiplied by a vector in time O(n log(n)) in a ring with roots of unity without making use of an FFT algorithm. With our algorithm we achieve a speedup of…

We show that if one can solve 3SUM on a set of size n in time n^{1+\e} then one can list t triangles in a graph with m edges in time O(m^{1+\e}t^{1/3-\e/3}). This is a reversal of Patrascu's reduction from 3SUM to listing triangles (STOC…

We show that deciding whether a given set of circles can be packed into a rectangle, an equilateral triangle, or a unit square are NP-hard problems, settling the complexity of these natural packing problems. On the positive side, we show…

A rectilinear polygon is a polygon whose edges are axis-aligned. Walking counterclockwise on the boundary of such a polygon yields a sequence of left turns and right turns. The number of left turns always equals the number of right turns…

In this paper, we analyze the time complexity of finding regular polygons in a set of n points. We combine two different approaches to find regular polygons, depending on their number of edges. Our result depends on the parameter alpha,…

We develop data structures for intersection queries in four dimensions that involve segments, triangles and tetrahedra. Specifically, we study three main problems: (i) Preprocess a set of $n$ tetrahedra in $\reals^4$ into a data structure…

A graph $G$ is a circle graph if it is an intersection graph of chords of a unit circle. We give an algorithm that takes as input an $n$ vertex circle graph $G$, runs in time at most $n^{O(\log n)}$ and finds a proper $3$-coloring of $G$,…

In this paper, we study movements of simple polygonal chains in 3D. We say that an open, simple polygonal chain can be straightened if it can be continuously reconfigured to a straight sequence of segments in such a manner that both the…

We study the computation of the diameter and radius under the rectilinear link distance within a rectilinear polygonal domain of $n$ vertices and $h$ holes. We introduce a \emph{graph of oriented distances} to encode the distance between…

Many fundamental problems in computational geometry admit no algorithm running in $o(n \log n)$ time for $n$ planar input points, via classical reductions from sorting. Prominent examples include the computation of convex hulls, quadtrees,…

A new algorithm for line clipping against convex polyhedron is given. The suggested algorithm is faster for higher number of facets of the given polyhedron than the traditional Cyrus-Beck's and others algorithms with complexity O(N) . The…

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 investigate the folding problem that asks if a polygon P can be folded to a polyhedron Q for given P and Q. Recently, an efficient algorithm for this problem has been developed when Q is a box. We extend this idea to regular polyhedra,…

The Searchlight Scheduling Problem was first studied in 2D polygons, where the goal is for point guards in fixed positions to rotate searchlights to catch an evasive intruder. Here the problem is extended to 3D polyhedra, with the guards…

We continue the study of Adin, Alon and Roichman [arXiv:2502.14398, 2025] on the number of steps required to sort $n$ labelled points on a circle by transpositions. Imagine that the vertices of a cycle of length $n$ are labelled by the…

We examine the complexity of the online Dictionary Matching with One Gap Problem (DMOG) which is the following. Preprocess a dictionary $D$ of $d$ patterns, where each pattern contains a special gap symbol that can match any string, so that…

We propose and study a generalization to the well-known problem of polyline simplification. Instead of a single polyline, we are given a set of $\ell$ polylines possibly sharing some line segments and bend points. Our goal is to minimize…

We show that packing axis-aligned unit squares into a simple polygon $P$ is NP-hard, even when $P$ is an orthogonal and orthogonally convex polygon with half-integer coordinates. It has been known since the early 80s that packing unit…
