On the Hardness of Welfare Maximization in Combinatorial Auctions with Submodular Valuations
We present a new type of monotone submodular functions: multi-peak submodular functions. Roughly speaking, given a family of sets F, we construct a monotone submodular function f ...

Colored intersection searching via sparse rectangular matrix multiplication
In a Batched Colored Intersection Searching Problem (CI), one is given a set of n geometric objects (of a certain class). Each object is colored by one of c colors, and the goal i...

Untangling planar graphs from a specified vertex position - Hard cases
Given a planar graph G, we consider drawings of G in the plane where edges are represented by straight line segments (which possibly intersect). Such a drawing is specified by an ...

Subexponential Algorithms for Partial Cover Problems
Partial Cover problems are optimization versions of fundamental and well studied problems like Vertex Cover and Dominating Set. Here one is interested in covering (or dominating) ...
