Optimal pants decompositions and shortest homotopic cycles on an orientable surface
We consider the problem of finding a shortest cycle (freely) homotopic to a given simple cycle on a compact, orientable surface. For this purpose, we use a pants decomposition of...

Linear-Time Algorithms for Geometric Graphs with Sublinearly Many Crossings
We provide linear-time algorithms for geometric graphs with sublinearly many crossings. That is, we provide algorithms running in O(n) time on connected geometric graphs having n ...
