Splay trees, Davenport-Schinzel sequences, and the deque conjecture
We introduce a new technique to bound the asymptotic performance of splay trees. The basic idea is to transcribe, in an indirect fashion, the rotations performed by the splay tree...

Robust cost colorings
We consider graph coloring problems where the cost of a coloring is the sum of the costs of the colors, and the cost of a color is a monotone concave function of the total weight ...

Geodesic Delaunay triangulation and witness complex in the plane
We introduce a new feature size for bounded domains in the plane endowed with an intrinsic metric. Given a point x in a domain X, the homotopy feature size of X at x measures half...

Sampling stable marriages: why spouse-swapping won't work
We study the behavior of random walks along the edges of the stable marriage lattice for various restricted families of allowable preference sets. In the "k-attribute model,&...
