We consider graph coloring problems where the cost of a coloring is the sum of the costs of the colors, and the cost of a color is a monotone concave function of the total weight ...
DNA self-assembly has emerged as a rich and promising primitive for nano-technology. Experimental and analytical evidence indicates that such systems are prone to errors, and acco...
We introduce a new feature size for bounded domains in the plane endowed with an intrinsic metric. Given a point x in a domain X, the homotopy feature size of X at x measures half...

We study the behavior of random walks along the edges of the stable marriage lattice for various restricted families of allowable preference sets. In the "k-attribute model,&...
We prove that binary linear concatenated codes with an outer algebraic code (specifically, a folded Reed-Solomon code) and independently and randomly chosen linear inner codes ach...
In this paper, we study the spread of influence through a social network, in a model initially studied by Kempe, Kleinberg and Tardos [14, 15]: We are given a graph modeling a soc...
We show how to compute the planar arrangement induced by segments of arbitrary algebraic curves with the Bentley-Ottmann sweep-line algorithm. The necessary geometric primitives r...
