A polynomial-time approximation scheme for planar multiway cut
Given an undirected graph with edge lengths and a subset of nodes (called the terminals), the multiway cut (also called the multi-terminal cut) problem asks for a subset of edges,...

Multiple-Source Shortest Paths in Embedded Graphs
Let G be a directed graph with n vertices and non-negative weights in its directed edges, embedded on a surface of genus g, and let f be an arbitrary face of G. We describe an alg...

On terminal delta-wye reducibility of planar graphs
A graph is terminal ∆ − Y -reducible if, it can be reduced to a distinguished set of terminal vertices by a sequence of series-parallel reductions and ∆−Y -transformations...

Obnoxious Centers in Graphs
We consider the problem of finding obnoxious centers in graphs. For arbitrary graphs with n vertices and m edges, we give a randomized algorithm with O(n log2 n + m log n) expecte...

Approximation algorithms via contraction decomposition
We prove that the edges of every graph of bounded (Euler) genus can be partitioned into any prescribed number k of pieces such that contracting any piece results in a graph of bou...

High Degree Vertices, Eigenvalues and Diameter of Random Apollonian Networks
ABSTRACT. Upon the discovery of power laws [8, 16, 30], a large body of work in complex network analysis has focused on developing generative models of graphs which mimick real-wor...

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 ...

Oblivious Buy-at-Bulk in Planar Graphs
In the oblivious buy-at-bulk network design problem in a graph, the task is to compute a fixed set of paths for every pair of source-destination in the graph, such that any set of ...
