An input to the betweenness problem contains m constraints over n real variables (points). Each constraint consists of three points, where one of the points is specified to lie in...
Starting with a similarity function between objects, it is possible to define a distance metric (the kernel distance) on pairs of objects, and more generally on probability distr...

We consider online routing algorithms for finding paths between the vertices of plane graphs. Although it has been shown in Bose et al. [4] that there exists no competitive routin...
Wavelets provide a sparse representation for piecewise smooth signals in 1-D; however, separable extensions of wavelets to multiple dimensions do not achieve the same level of spa...
We study the Unsplittable Flow Problem (UFP) on a line graph, focusing on the long-standing open question of whether the problem is APX-hard. We describe a deterministic quasi-pol...
