On the geometry of graphs with a forbidden minor
We study the topological simplification of graphs via random embeddings, leading ultimately to a reduction of the Gupta-Newman-Rabinovich-Sinclair (GNRS) L1 embedding conjecture t...

A Graph Reduction Method for 2D Snake Problems
Energy-minimizing active contour models (snakes) have been proposed for solving many computer vision problems such as object segmentation, surface reconstruction, and object track...

Improved Model Checking of Hierarchical Systems
We present a unified game-based approach for branching-time model checking of hierarchical systems. Such systems are exponentially more succinct than standard state-transition gra...

(Meta) Kernelization
Polynomial time preprocessing to reduce instance size is one of the most commonly deployed heuristics to tackle computationally hard problems. In a parameterized problem, every in...

Parametric and Kinetic Minimum Spanning Trees
We consider the parametric minimum spanning tree problem, in which we are given a graph with edge weights that are linear functions of a parameter and wish to compute the sequenc...
