Improved bounds for cops-and-robber pursuit
We prove that n cops can capture (that is, some cop can get less than unit distance from) a robber in a continuous square region with side length less than √ 5n and hence that n/...

Characterizations of restricted pairs of planar graphs allowing simultaneous embedding with fixed edges
A set of planar graphs share a simultaneous embedding if they can be drawn on the same vertex set V in the Euclidean plane without crossings between edges of the same graph. Fixed ...

A computational approach to Conway's thrackle conjecture
A drawing of a graph in the plane is called a thrackle if every pair of edges meets precisely once, either at a common vertex or at a proper crossing. Let t(n) denote the maximum ...

On crossing numbers of geometric proximity graphs
Let P be a set of n points in the plane. A geometric proximity graph on P is a graph where two points are connected by a straight-line segment if they satisfy some prescribed prox...

Stabbers of line segments in the plane
The problem of computing a representation of the stabbing lines of a set S of segments in the plane was solved by Edelsbrunner et al. We provide efficient algorithms for the follo...

Covering points by disjoint boxes with outliers
For a set of n points in the plane, we consider the axis–aligned (p, k)-Box Covering problem: Find p axis-aligned, pairwise-disjoint boxes that together contain at least n − k...

A note on the perimeter of fat objects
In this note, we show that the size of the perimeter of (α, β)-covered objects is a linear function of the diameter. Specifically, for an (α, β)-covered object O, per(O) ≤ c...

Lifetime Security Improvement in Wireless Sensor Network Using Queue-Based Techniques
A wireless sensor network (WSN) is envisioned as a cluster of tiny power-constrained devices with functions of sensing and communications. Sensors closer to a sink node have a larg...
