Parameterization and applications of Catmull-Rom curves
The behavior of Catmull-Rom curves heavily depends on the choice of parameter values at the control points. We analyze a class of parameterizations ranging from uniform to chordal...

An O(n)-Time Algorithm for the Paired-Domination Problem on Permutation Graphs
A vertex subset D of a graph G is a dominating set if every vertex of G is either in D or is adjacent to a vertex in D. The paired-domination problem on G asks for a minimum-cardi...

Optimal System of Loops on an Orientable Surface
Every compact orientable boundaryless surface M can be cut along simple loops with a common point v0, pairwise disjoint except at v0, so that the resulting surface is a topologica...

A Subdivision Approach to Planar Semi-algebraic Sets
Abstract. Semi-algebraic sets occur naturally when dealing with implicit models and boolean operations between them. In this work we present an algorithm to efficiently and in a ce...
