Permutation Editing and Matching via Embeddings
Abstract. If the genetic maps of two species are modelled as permutations of (homologous) genes, the number of chromosomal rearrangements in the form of deletions, block moves, inv...

Distance graphs: from random geometric graphs to Bernoulli graphs and between
A random geometric graph G(n, r) is a graph resulting from placing n points uniformly at random on the unit area disk, and connecting two points iff their Euclidean distance is at ...

Efficient testing of groups
We construct an efficient probabilistic algorithm that, given a finite set with a binary operation, tests if it is an abelian group. The distance used is an analogue of the edit d...

An optimization problem on the sphere
We prove existence and uniqueness of the minimizer for the average geodesic distance to the points of a geodesically convex set on the sphere. This implies a corresponding existen...
