Fast and robust detection of crest lines on meshes
We propose a fast and robust method for detecting crest lines on surfaces approximated by dense triangle meshes. The crest lines, salient surface features defined via first- and...

Infeasibility of Instance Compression and Succinct PCPs for NP
The OR-SAT problem asks, given Boolean formulae φ1, . . . , φm each of size at most n, whether at least one of the φi’s is satisfiable. We show that there is no reduction fr...
