Near-Linear Time Construction of Sparse Neighborhood Covers
This paper introduces a near-linear time sequential algorithm for constructing a sparse neighborhood cover. This implies analogous improvements (from quadratic to near-linear time)...

An O(log k) Approximate Min-Cut Max-Flow Theorem and Approximation Algorithm
It is shown that the minimum cut ratio is within a factor of O(log k) of the maximum concurrent flow for k-commodity flow instances with arbitrary capacities and demands. This im...

Two-Dimensional Periodicity in Rectangular Arrays
Abstract. String matching is rich with a variety of algorithmic tools. In contrast, multidimensional matching has had a rather sparse set of techniques. This paper presents a new a...
