Randomly removing g handles at once
It was shown in [11] that any orientable graph of genus g can be probabilistically embedded into a graph of genus g − 1 with constant distortion. Removing handles one by one giv...

Inapproximability for planar embedding problems
We consider the problem of computing a minimumdistortion bijection between two point-sets in R2 . We prove the first non-trivial inapproximability result for this problem, for the...
