Relaxed Spanners for Directed Disk Graphs
Let (V, δ) be a finite metric space, where V is a set of n points and δ is a distance function defined for these points. Assume that (V, δ) has a constant doubling dimension d...

Long Non-crossing Configurations in the Plane
We revisit several maximization problems for geometric networks design under the non-crossing constraint, first studied by Alon, Rajagopalan and Suri (ACM Symposium on Computation...

The Complexity of Approximating Bounded-Degree Boolean #CSP
The degree of a CSP instance is the maximum number of times that a variable may appear in the scope of constraints. We consider the approximate counting problem for Boolean CSPs wi...

Two-phase Algorithms for the Parametric Shortest Path Problem
Abstract. A parametric weighted graph is a graph whose edges are labeled with continuous real functions of a single common variable. For any instantiation of the variable, one obta...

Beyond Bidimensionality: Parameterized Subexponential Algorithms on Directed Graphs
In 2000 Alber et al. [SWAT 2000 ] obtained the first parameterized subexponential algorithm on undirected planar graphs by showing that k-DOMINATING SET is solvable in time 2O( ...

Evolving Multialgebras Unify All Usual Sequential Computation Models
Abstract. It is well-known that Abstract State Machines (ASMs) can simulate “stepby-step” any type of machines (Turing machines, RAMs, etc.). We aim to overcome two facts: 1) s...

Dispersion in Unit Disks
We present two new approximation algorithms with (improved) constant ratios for selecting n points in n unit disks such that the minimum pairwise distance among the points is maxi...

Unsatisfiable Linear CNF Formulas Are Large and Complex
We call a CNF formula linear if any two clauses have at most one variable in common. We show that there exist unsatisfiable linear k-CNF formulas with at most 4k2 4k clauses, and ...

Exact Covers via Determinants
Given a k-uniform hypergraph on n vertices, partitioned in k equal parts such that every hyperedge includes one vertex from each part, the k-Dimensional Matching problem asks wheth...
