The growing nature of databases, and the flexibility inherent in the SQL query language that allows arbitrarily complex formulations, can result in queries that take inordinate am...
We study the problem of minimum-distortion embedding of ultrametrics into the plane and higher dimensional spaces. Ultrametrics are a natural class of metrics that frequently occu...

A tanglegram is a pair of trees whose leaf sets are in oneto-one correspondence; matching leaves are connected by inter-tree edges. In applications such as phylogenetics or hierar...
Abstract. We consider the problem of computing Nash Equilibria of action-graph games (AGGs). AGGs, introduced by Bhat and Leyton-Brown, is a succinct representation of games that e...

We study the maximum edge-disjoint paths problem in undirected planar graphs: given a graph G and node pairs s1t1, s2t2, . . ., sktk, the goal is to maximize the number of pairs t...
