We describe the first algorithms to compute minimum cuts in surface-embedded graphs in near-linear time. Given an undirected graph embedded on an orientable surface of genus g, with two specified vertices s and t, our algorithm computes a minimum (s,t)-cut ...

Let M be an orientable combinatorial surface. A cycle on M is splitting if it has no self-intersections and it partitions M into two components, neither of which is homeomorphic to a disk. In other words, splitting cycles are simple, separating, and ...

The (Vietoris-)Rips complex of a discrete point-set P is an abstract simplicial complex in which a subset of P defines a simplex if and only if the diameter of that subset is at most 1. We describe an efficient algorithm to determine whether ...

The Fréchet distance between two curves in the plane is the minimum length of a leash that allows a dog and its owner to walk along their respective curves, from one end to the other, without backtracking. We propose a natural extension of Fréchet ...

A cycle on a combinatorial surface is tight if it as short as possible in its (free) homotopy class. We describe an algorithm to compute a single tight, non-contractible, simple cycle on a given orientable combinatorial surface in O(n log n) time. ...
