We consider the problem of picking (buying) an inexpensive s-t path in a graph where edges are owned by independent (selfish) agents, and the cost of an edge is known to its owner...
We consider the problem of finding a sparse set of edges containing the minimum spanning tree (MST) of a random subgraph of G with high probability. The two random models that we ...
Graph H is a root of graph G if there exists a positive integer k such that x and y are adjacent in G if and only if their distance in H is at most k. Motwani and Sudan [1994] prov...
The inference of evolutionary trees using approaches which attempt to solve the maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML) optimization problems is a standard part of much...
In this paper, we give results relevant to sequential and distributed dynamic data structures for finding nearest neighbors in growth-restricted metrics. Our sequential data struc...
