Space Efficient Approximation to Maximum Matching Size from Uniform Edge Samples

Mikhail Kapralov, Slobodan Mitrovic, Jakab Tardos, Ashkan Norouzi Fard

Given a source of iid samples of edges of an input graph G with n vertices and m edges, how many samples does one need to compute a constant factor approximation to the maximum matching size in G? Moreover, is it possible to obtain such an estimate in a sm ...

A finite element framework based on bivariate simplex splines on triangle configurations

Xiaodong Wei, Juan Cao

Recently, triangle configuration based bivariate simplex splines (referred to as TCB-spline) have been introduced to the geometric computing community. TCB-splines retain many attractive theoretic properties of classical B-splines, such as partition of uni ...

Thrackles: An improved upper bound

János Pach, Radoslav Fulek

A thrackle is a graph drawn in the plane so that every pair of its edges meet exactly once: either at a common end vertex or in a proper crossing. We prove that any thrackle of n vertices has at most 1.3984n edges. Quasi-thrackles are defined similarly, ex ...

Approximating the rectilinear crossing number

János Pach

A straight-line drawing of a graph G is a mapping which assigns to each vertex a point in the plane and to each edge a straight-line segment connecting the corresponding two points. The rectilinear crossing number of a graph G, (cr) over bar (G), is the mi ...

On Simplices in Diameter Graphs in R-4

Andrei Kupavskii

A graph G is a diameter graph in R-d if its vertex set is a finite subset in R-d of diameter 1 and edges join pairs of vertices a unit distance apart. It is shown that if a diameter graph G in R-4 contains the complete subgraph K on five vertices, then any ...

Remarks on Schur's conjecture

János Pach, Filip Moric

Let P be a set of n > d points in for d >= 2. It was conjectured by Zvi Schur that the maximum number of (d-1)-dimensional regular simplices of edge length diam(P), whose every vertex belongs to P, is n. We prove this statement under the condition that any ...

Exponentiality of the exchange algorithm for finding another room-partitioning

Laura Sanità

Let T be a triangulated surface given by the list of vertex-triples of its triangles, called rooms. A room-partitioning for T is a subset R of the rooms such that each vertex of T is in exactly one room in R. Given a room-partitioning R for T, the exchange ...

The number of distinct distances from a vertex of a convex polygon

János Pach, Gabriel Nivasch, Rom Pinchasi

Erd\H{o}s conjectured in 1946 that every n-point set P in convex position in the plane contains a point that determines at least floor(n/2) distinct distances to the other points of P. The best known lower bound due to Dumitrescu (2006) is 13n/36 - O(1). I ...

Application of vertex and mass constraints in track-based alignment

Olivier Schneider, Christophe Salzmann, Vincent Fave, Matthew Needham, Maurizio Martinelli, Frédéric Guillaume Dupertuis, Géraldine Conti, Louis Nicolas, Gerhard Raven

The software alignment of planar tracking detectors using samples of charged particle trajectories may lead to global detector distortions that affect vertex and momentum resolution. We present an alignment procedure that constrains such distortions by mak ...

k-Quasi-Planar Graphs

A topological graph is k-quasi-planar if it does not contain k pairwise crossing edges. A topological graph is simple if every pair of its edges intersect at most once (either at a vertex or at their intersection). In 1996, Pach, Shahrokhi. and Szegedy [16 ...

Finite Element Method on Riemann Surfaces and Applications to the Laplacian Spectrum

Marc Maintrot

The objective of this PhD thesis is the approximate computation of the solutions of the Spectral Problem associated with the Laplace operator on a compact Riemann surface without boundaries. A Riemann surface can be seen as a gluing of portions of the Hype ...

New Results in the Theory of Linear and Integer Programming

The polynomial Hirsch conjecture states that the vertex-edge diameter of a d-dimensional polyhedron with n facets is bounded by a polynomial in d and n. For the special case where the polyhedron is defined as the set of points satisfying a system Ax ≤ b of ...

On the Page Number of Upward Planar Directed Acyclic Graphs

Radoslav Fulek, Fabrizio Frati, Andres Jacinto Ruiz Vargas

In this paper we study the page number of upward planar directed acyclic graphs. We prove that: (I) the page number of any n-vertex upward planar triangulation G whose every maximal 4-connected component has page number k is at most min {O(k log n), O(2(k) ...

Every graph admits an unambiguous bold drawing

János Pach

Let r and w be a fixed positive numbers, w < r. In a bold drawing of a graph, every vertex is represented by a disk of radius r, and every edge by a narrow rectangle of width w. We solve a problem of van Kreveld [K09] by showing that every graph admits a b ...

Diameter of Polyhedra: Limits of Abstraction

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Thomas Rothvoss, Nicolai Hähnle

We investigate the diameter of a natural abstraction of the 1-skeleton of polyhedra. Although this abstraction is simpler than other abstractions that were previously studied in the literature, the best upper bounds on the diameter of polyhedra continue to ...
