Abstract. Meaningful notions of distance between planar shapes typically involve the computation of a correspondence between points on one shape and points on the other. To determi...
In this paper we study the problem of computing an upward straight-line embedding of a directed graph G into a point set S, i.e. a planar drawing of G such that each vertex is map...

In many dynamic matching applications—especially high-stakes ones—the competitive ratios of prior-free online algorithms are unacceptably poor. The algorithm should take distr...

We consider the problem of obtaining “nice” quadrangulations of planar sets of points. For many applications “nice” means that the quadrilaterals obtained are convex if po...
At present, the most successful approach to solving large-scale instances of the Symmetric Traveling Salesman Problem to optimality is branch-and-cut. The success of branch-and-cu...
