On the approximability of covering points by lines and related problems

Adrian Dumitrescu, Minghui Jiang

Given a set of points in the plane, {\sc Covering Points by Lines} is the problem of finding a minimum-cardinality set of lines such that every point is incid…

Computing the Geodesic Diameter and Center of a Simple Polygon in Linear Time

Sang Won Bae, Matias Korman, Yoshio Okamoto +1

In this paper, we show that the geodesic diameter and center of a simple polygon can be computed in linear time. For the purpose, we focus on revealing basic geometric proper…

The opaque square

Adrian Dumitrescu, Minghui Jiang

The problem of finding small sets that block every line passing through a unit square was first considered by Mazurkiewicz in 1916. We call such a set {\em opaque} or a {\em barrie…

Application of a Hough search for continuous gravitational waves on data from the 5th LIGO science run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +876

We report on an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range with the first derivative of frequency in the range $-8.9 \times 10^{-1…

First Searches for Optical Counterparts to Gravitational-wave Candidate Events

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +904

During the LIGO and Virgo joint science runs in 2009-2010, gravitational wave (GW) data from three interferometer detectors were analyzed within minutes to select GW candidate even…

Relations between Witten-reshetikhin-turaev and non semi-simple sl(2) 3-manifold invariants

Francesco Costantino, Nathan Geer, Bertrand Patureau-Mirand

The Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants extend the Jones polynomials of links in S^3 to invariants of links in 3-manifolds. Similarly, in a preceding paper, the authors constructe…
