Sorting by Length-Weighted Reversals: Dealing with Signs and Circularity
Abstract. We consider the problem of sorting linear and circular permutations and 0/1 sequences by reversals in a length-sensitive cost model. We extend the results on sorting by l...

Balanced Randomized Tree Splitting with Applications to Evolutionary Tree Constructions
We present a new technique called balanced randomized tree splitting. It is useful in constructing unknown trees recursively. By applying it we obtain two new results on efficient ...

Reducing truth-telling online mechanisms to online optimization
We describe a general technique for converting an online algorithm B to a truthtelling mechanism. We require that the original online competitive algorithm has certain "nicen...
