Minimum cuts and shortest homologous cycles
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...

Choiceless Computation and Symmetry
Many natural problems in computer science concern structures like graphs where elements are not inherently ordered. In contrast, Turing machines and other common models of computa...

Fine Tuning Algorithmic Skeletons
Abstract. Algorithmic skeletons correspond to a high-level programming model that takes advantage of nestable programming patterns to hide the complexity of parallel/distributed ap...

The number of lines tangent to arbitrary convex polyhedra in 3D
We prove that the lines tangent to four possibly intersecting convex polyhedra in   3 with n edges in total form Θ(n2 ) connected components in the worst case. In the generic ca...
