A Primal Branch-and-Cut Algorithm for the Degree-Constrained Minimum Spanning Tree Problem
The degree-constrained minimum spanning tree (DCMST) is relevant in the design of networks. It consists of finding a spanning tree whose nodes do not exceed a given maximum degree...

Cuttings for Disks and Axis-Aligned Rectangles
We present new asymptotically tight bounds on cuttings, a fundamental data structure in computational geometry. For n objects in space and a parameter r ∈ N, an 1 r -cutting is ...

Shallow-Low-Light Trees, and Tight Lower Bounds for Euclidean Spanners
We show that for every n-point metric space M and positive integer k, there exists a spanning tree T with unweighted diameter O(k) and weight w(T) = O(k · n1/k ) · w(MST(M)), an...
