Approximate Range Searching: The Absolute Model
Range searching is a well known problem in the area of geometric data structures. We consider this problem in the context of approximation, where an approximation parameter ε >...

A Pseudopolynomial Time O (log n )-Approximation Algorithm for Art Gallery Problems
In this paper, we give a O(log copt)-approximation algorithm for the point guard problem where copt is the optimal number of guards. Our algorithm runs in time polynomial in n, the...

On a Family of Strong Geometric Spanners That Admit Local Routing Strategies
We introduce a family of directed geometric graphs, denoted Gθ λ, that depend on two parameters λ and θ. For 0 ≤ θ < π 2 and 1 2 < λ < 1, the Gθ λ graph is a s...

Alpha-Beta Witness Complexes
Building on the work of Martinetz, Schulten and de Silva, Carlsson, we introduce a 2-parameter family of witness complexes and algorithms for constructing them. This family can be ...

Maximizing Maximal Angles for Plane Straight-Line Graphs
Let G = (S, E) be a plane straight-line graph on a finite point set S ⊂ R2 in general position. The incident angles of a point p ∈ S in G are the angles between any two edges ...

Approximating the Maximum Sharing Problem
In the maximum sharing problem (MS), we want to compute a set of (non-simple) paths in an undirected bipartite graph covering as many nodes as possible of the first layer of the ...

Spanners for Geometric Intersection Graphs
A ball graph is an intersection graph of a set of balls with arbitrary radii. Given a real number t > 1, we say that a subgraph G′ of a graph G is a t-spanner of G, if for eve...
