Motivated by several applications, we introduce various distance measures between “top k lists.” Some of these distance measures are metrics, while others are not. For each of...

Motivated by routing issues in ad hoc networks, we present polylogarithmic-time distributed algorithms for two problems. Given a network, we first show how to compute connected a...

State-of-the-art linear programming (LP) solvers give solutions without any warranty. Solutions are not guaranteed to be optimal or even close to optimal. Of course, it is general...

Though Delaunay triangulations are very well known geometric data structures, the problem of the robust removal of a vertex in a three-dimensional Delaunay triangulation is still ...

We consider the problem of uniformly sampling a vertex of a transportation polytope with m sources and n destinations, where m is a constant. We analyse a natural random walk on t...

With random inputs, certain decision problems undergo a “phase transition”. We prove similar behavior in an optimization context. Given a conjunctive normal form (CNF) formula...

We propose an algorithm to compute a conforming Delaunay mesh of a polyhedral domain in three dimensions. Arbitrarily small input angles are allowed. The output mesh is graded and...
