Online Interval Selection on a Simple Chain
Yaqiao Li, Ali Mohammad Lavasani, Denis Pankratov
A set of intervals forms a simple chain if, for every , interval overlaps only with and . We show that a…
On the Online Weighted Non-Crossing Matching Problem
Joan Boyar, Shahin Kamali, Kim S. Larsen +3
We introduce and study the weighted version of an online matching problem in the Euclidean plane with non-crossing constraints: points with non-negative weights arrive online, and…
Newman's theorem via Carathéodory
Yaqiao Li, Ali Mohammad Lavasani, Mehran Shakerinava
We give a streamlined short proof of Newman's theorem in communication complexity by applying the classical and the approximate Carathéodory's theorems.
Maximum Weight Convex Polytope
Mohammad Ali Abam, Ali Mohammad Lavasani, Denis Pankratov
We study the maximum weight convex polytope problem, in which the goal is to find a convex polytope maximizing the total weight of enclosed points. Prior to this work, the only kno…
Advice Complexity of Online Non-Crossing Matching
Ali Mohammad Lavasani, Denis Pankratov
We study online matching in the Euclidean -dimesional plane with non-crossing constraint. The offline version was introduced by Atallah in 1985 and the online version was introd…
