A Geometric Approach to Betweenness
An input to the betweenness problem contains m constraints over n real variables (points). Each constraint consists of three points, where one of the points is specified to lie in...

Price based protocols for fair resource allocation: convergence time analysis and extension to Leontief utilities
We analyze several distributed, continuous time protocols for a fair allocation of bandwidths to flows in a network (or resources to agents). Our protocols converge to an allocati...
