RNA Folding Including Pseudoknots: A New Parameterized Algorithm and Improved Upper Bound
Predicting the secondary structure of an RNA sequence is an important problem in structural bioinformatics. The general RNA folding problem, where the sequence to be folded may con...

Removing Even Crossings on Surfaces
In this paper we investigate how certain results related to the HananiTutte theorem can be extended from the plane to surfaces. We give a simple topological proof that the weak Ha...

Adding one edge to planar graphs makes crossing number hard
A graph is near-planar if it can be obtained from a planar graph by adding an edge. We show that it is NP-hard to compute the crossing number of near-planar graphs. The main idea ...

Metric uniformization and spectral bounds for graphs
We present a method for proving upper bounds on the eigenvalues of the graph Laplacian. A main step involves choosing an appropriate "Riemannian" metric to uniformize th...

A New Exact Algorithm for the Two-Sided Crossing Minimization Problem
The Two-Sided Crossing Minimization (TSCM) problem calls for minimizing the number of edge crossings of a bipartite graph where the two sets of vertices are drawn on two parallel l...
