A randomized embedding algorithm for trees
In this paper, we propose a simple and natural randomized algorithm to embed a tree T in a given graph G. The algorithm can be viewed as a "self-avoiding tree-indexed random ...

Optimal Random Matchings on Trees and Applications
In this paper we will consider tight upper- and lower-bounds on the weight of the optimal matching for random point sets distributed among the leaves of a tree, as a function of it...

A Sublinear-Time Randomized Approximation Scheme for the Robinson-Foulds Metric
The Robinson-Foulds (RF) metric is the measure most widely used in comparing phylogenetic trees; it can be computed in linear time using Day's algorithm. When faced with the n...

The Online Transportation Problem
We present a poly-log-competitive deterministic online algorithm for the online transportation problem on hierarchically separated trees when the online algorithm has one extra se...
