We describe the first algorithms to compute minimum cuts in surface-embedded graphs in near-linear time. Given an undirected graph embedded on an orientable surface of genus g, w...
This paper introduces a near-linear time sequential algorithm for constructing a sparse neighborhood cover. This implies analogous improvements (from quadratic to near-linear time)...
In the presented article we present an algorithm for the computation of ground state spin configurations for the 2d random bond Ising model on planar triangular lattice graphs. T...
The Minimum Weight Euclidean Matching (MWEM) problem is: given 2n point sites in the plane with Euclidean metric for interpoint distances, match the sites into n pairs so that the...
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...
