Improved Results on Geometric Hitting Set Problems
We consider the problem of computing minimum geometric hitting sets in which, given a set of geometric objects and a set of points, the goal is to compute the smallest subset of p...

One line and n points
: We analyze a randomized pivoting process involving one line and n points in the plane. The process models the behavior of the RANDOM-EDGE simplex algorithm on simple polytopes wi...

Convergence and rate of convergence of a simple ant model
We present a simple ant model that solves a discrete foraging problem. We describe simulations and provide a complete convergence analysis: we show that the ant population compute...
