Orientation Preserving Maps of the Square Grid

Authors: Imre Bárány, Attila Pór, and Pavel Valtr

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 189, 37th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2021)


Abstract
For a finite set A ⊂ ℝ², a map φ: A → ℝ² is orientation preserving if for every non-collinear triple u,v,w ∈ A the orientation of the triangle u,v,w is the same as that of the triangle φ(u),φ(v),φ(w). We prove that for every n ∈ ℕ and for every ε > 0 there is N = N(n,ε) ∈ ℕ such that the following holds. Assume that φ:G(N) → ℝ² is an orientation preserving map where G(N) is the grid {(i,j) ∈ ℤ²: -N ≤ i,j ≤ N}. Then there is an affine transformation ψ :ℝ² → ℝ² and a ∈ ℤ² such that a+G(n) ⊂ G(N) and ‖ψ∘φ (z)-z‖ < ε for every z ∈ a+G(n). This result was previously proved in a completely different way by Nešetřil and Valtr, without obtaining any bound on N. Our proof gives N(n,ε) = O(n⁴ε^{-2}).

Double Threshold Digraphs

Authors: Peter Hamburger, Ross M. McConnell, Attila Pór, Jeremy P. Spinrad, and Zhisheng Xu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 117, 43rd International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2018)


Abstract
A semiorder is a model of preference relations where each element x is associated with a utility value alpha(x), and there is a threshold t such that y is preferred to x iff alpha(y) - alpha(x) > t. These are motivated by the notion that there is some uncertainty in the utility values we assign an object or that a subject may be unable to distinguish a preference between objects whose values are close. However, they fail to model the well-known phenomenon that preferences are not always transitive. Also, if we are uncertain of the utility values, it is not logical that preference is determined absolutely by a comparison of them with an exact threshold. We propose a new model in which there are two thresholds, t_1 and t_2; if the difference alpha(y) - alpha(x) is less than t_1, then y is not preferred to x; if the difference is greater than t_2 then y is preferred to x; if it is between t_1 and t_2, then y may or may not be preferred to x. We call such a relation a (t_1,t_2) double-threshold semiorder, and the corresponding directed graph G = (V,E) a (t_1,t_2) double-threshold digraph. Every directed acyclic graph is a double-threshold digraph; increasing bounds on t_2/t_1 give a nested hierarchy of subclasses of the directed acyclic graphs. In this paper we characterize the subclasses in terms of forbidden subgraphs, and give algorithms for finding an assignment of utility values that explains the relation in terms of a given (t_1,t_2) or else produces a forbidden subgraph, and finding the minimum value lambda of t_2/t_1 that is satisfiable for a given directed acyclic graph. We show that lambda gives a useful measure of the complexity of a directed acyclic graph with respect to several optimization problems that are NP-hard on arbitrary directed acyclic graphs.
