We show that a random walk on a tournament on n vertices finds either a sink or a 3-cycle in expected time O √ n · log n · log∗ n , that is, sublinear both in the size of th...
We take a new look at the convex path recoloring (CPR), convex tree recoloring (CTR), and convex leaf recoloring (CLR) problems through the eyes of the independent set problem. Th...
It is shown that for every finite set of disjoint convex polygonal obstacles in the plane, with a total of n vertices, the free space around the obstacles can be partitioned into ...

In [3], the authors introduced the Generalised Character Compatibility Problem as a generalisation of the Perfect Phylogeny Problem for a set of species. This generalised problem t...
A honeynet is a portion of routed but otherwise unused address space that is instrumented for network traffic monitoring. It is an invaluable tool for understanding unwanted Intern...

The problems of uniformly sampling and approximately counting contingency tables have been widely studied, but efficient solutions are only known in special cases. One appealing ap...
This paper explores the fundamental question of how many iterations the celebrated HITS algorithm requires on a general graph to converge in score and, perhaps more importantly, in...
Edge-intersection graphs of paths in grids are graphs that can be represented with vertices as paths in grids and edges between the vertices of the graph exist whenever two grid pa...
Golumbic et al. [Discrete Applied Mathematics 154(2006) 1465-1477] defined the readability of a monotone Boolean function f to be the minimum integer k such that there exists an ...
