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 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 ...
We develop an analytical model to predict equilibrium shapes of two-component heterogeneous vesicles or capsules. Using a free energy functional including the bending energies of the two components and line tension contributions, the model describes shape ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Given a set P of n points in ℝd, let d1 > d2 >...denote all distinct inter-point distances generated by point pairs in P. It was shown by Schur, Martini, Perles, and Kupitz that there is at most oned-dimensional regular simplex of edge length d1 whos ...
