Over the past decade, investigations in different fields have focused on studying and understanding real networks, ranging from biological to social to technological. These networks, called complex networks, exhibit common topological features, such as a h ...
In conventional group testing, the goal is to detect a small subset of defecting items D in a large population N by grouping \textit{arbitrary} subset of N into different pools. The result of each group test $\mathcal{T} ...
Hyperfiniteness or amenability of measurable equivalence relations and group actions has been studied for almost fifty years. Recently, unexpected applications of hyperfiniteness were found in computer science in the context of testability of graph propert ...
Various practical applications of the average (A) and difference (D) of Friedel opposites are described. Techniques based on the resonant-scattering contribution to Friedel differences are applied to see whether a crystal is centrosymmetric or not, and to ...
We consider graphs that admit polyline drawings where all crossings occur at the same angle alpha is an element of (0, pi/2]. We prove that every graph on n vertices that admits such a polyline drawing with at most two bends per edge has O(n) edges. This r ...
Given a graph G, an obstacle representation of G is a set of points in the plane representing the vertices of G, together with a set of connected obstacles such that two vertices of G are joined by an edge if and only if the corresponding points can be con ...
We live in a world characterized by massive information transfer and real-time communication. The demand for efficient yet low-complexity algorithms is widespread across different fields, including machine learning, signal processing and communications. Mo ...
Given a collection C of curves in the plane, its string graph is defined as the graph with vertex set C, in which two curves in C are adjacent if and only if they intersect. Given a partially ordered set (P,
Non-adaptive group testing involves grouping arbitrary subsets of n items into different pools. Each pool is then tested and defective items are identified. A fundamental question involves minimizing the number of pools required to identify at most d d ...
We analyze the relations between several graph transformations that were introduced to be used in procedures determining the stability number of a graph. We show that all these transformations can be decomposed into a sequence of edge deletions and twin de ...
