The Robustness of Level Sets
We define the robustness of a level set homology class of a function f : X R as the magnitude of a perturbation necessary to kill the class. Casting this notion into a group theor...

The Geodesic Diameter of Polygonal Domains
This paper studies the geodesic diameter of polygonal domains having h holes and n corners. For simple polygons (i.e., h = 0), it is known that the geodesic diameter is determined...

Streaming Graph Computations with a Helpful Advisor
Motivated by the trend to outsource work to commercial cloud computing services, we consider a variation of the streaming paradigm where a streaming algorithm can be assisted by a...

On the Huffman and Alphabetic Tree Problem with General Cost Functions
We study a wide generalization of two classical problems, the Huffman Tree and Alphabetic Tree Problem. We assume that the cost caused by the ith leaf is fi(di), where di is its d...

Fast Minor Testing in Planar Graphs
Minor containment is a fundamental problem in Algorithmic Graph Theory, as numerous graph algorithms use it as a subroutine. A model of a graph H in a graph G is a set of disjoint ...

A Unified Approach to Approximate Proximity Searching
The inability to answer proximity queries efficiently for spaces of dimension d > 2 has led to the study of approximation to proximity problems. Several techniques have been pro...

Approximating Parameterized Convex Optimization Problems
We consider parameterized convex optimization problems over the unit simplex, that depend on one parameter. We provide a simple and efficient scheme for maintaining an -approximat...
