We describe the first algorithms to compute minimum cuts in surface-embedded graphs in near-linear time. Given an undirected graph embedded on an orientable surface of genus g, w...
We consider the problem of finding a balanced ordering of the vertices of a graph. More precisely, we want to minimise the sum, taken over all vertices v, of the difference betwe...
We provide first-time fixed-parameter tractability results for the NP-complete problems Maximum Full-Degree Spanning Tree and Minimum-Vertex Feedback Edge Set. These problems are...
Three types of geometric structure--grid triangulations, rectangular subdivisions, and orthogonal polyhedra-can each be described combinatorially by a regular labeling: an assignm...
We consider the problem of generating all ideals of a poset. It is a long standing open problem, whether or not the ideals of any poset can be generated in constant amortized time...
