Optimal routing in Chord
We propose optimal routing algorithms for Chord [1], a popular topology for routing in peer-to-peer networks. Chord is an undirected graph on 2b nodes arranged in a circle, with e...

On contract-and-refine transformations between phylogenetic trees
The inference of evolutionary trees using approaches which attempt to solve the maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML) optimization problems is a standard part of much...

The number of bit comparisons used by Quicksort: an average-case analysis
The analyses of many algorithms and data structures (such as digital search trees) for searching and sorting are based on the representation of the keys involved as bit strings and...

Minimizing the stabbing number of matchings, trees, and triangulations
The (axis-parallel) stabbing number of a given set of line segments is the maximum number of segments that can be intersected by any one (axis-parallel) line. We investigate probl...

Output-sensitive construction of the union of triangles
We present an efficient algorithm for the following problem: Given a collection T = {1, . . . , n} of n triangles in the plane, such that there exists a subset S T (unknown to us)...

Approximating Minimum Max-Stretch spanning Trees on unweighted graphs
Given a graph G and a spanning tree T of G, we say that T is a tree t-spanner of G if the distance between every pair of vertices in T is at most t times their distance in G. The p...

Frugality in path auctions
We consider the problem of picking (buying) an inexpensive s-t path in a graph where edges are owned by independent (selfish) agents, and the cost of an edge is known to its owner...
