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...

Minimum Makespan Multi-vehicle Dial-a-Ride
Dial-a-Ride problems consist of a set V of n vertices in a metric space (denoting travel time between vertices) and a set of m objects represented as source-destination pairs {(si,...
