Martingales on Trees and the Empire Chromatic Number of Random Trees
We study the empire colouring problem (as defined by Percy Heawood in 1890) for maps whose dual planar graph is a tree, with empires formed by exactly r countries. We prove that, ...

Discovering local structure in gene expression data: the order-preserving submatrix problem
This paper concerns the discovery of patterns in gene expression matrices, in which each element gives the expression level of a given gene in a given experiment. Most existing me...
