Hardness and approximation of minimum distortion embeddings
We show that the problem of computing a minimum distortion embedding of a given graph into a path remains NP-hard when the input graph is restricted to a bipartite, cobipartite, o...

Hardness of Embedding Metric Spaces of Equal Size
Abstract. We study the problem embedding an n-point metric space into another n-point metric space while minimizing distortion. We show that there is no polynomial time algorithm t...

Low-distortion embeddings of general metrics into the line
A low-distortion embedding between two metric spaces is a mapping which preserves the distances between each pair of points, up to a small factor called distortion. Low-distortion...

Embedding ultrametrics into low-dimensional spaces
We study the problem of minimum-distortion embedding of ultrametrics into the plane and higher dimensional spaces. Ultrametrics are a natural class of metrics that frequently occu...

Computing minimum distortion embeddings into a path for bipartite permutation graphs and threshold graphs
The problem of computing minimum distortion embeddings of a given graph into a line (path) was introduced in 2004 and has quickly attracted significant attention with subsequent ...
