Singular Arrange and Traverse Algorithm for Computing Reeb Spaces of Bivariate PL Maps

Authors: Petar Hristov, Ingrid Hotz, and Talha Bin Masood

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 367, 42nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2026)


Abstract
We present an exact and efficient algorithm for computing the Reeb space of a bivariate PL map. The Reeb space is a topological structure that generalizes the Reeb graph to the setting of multiple scalar-valued functions defined over a shared domain, a situation that frequently arises in practical applications. While the Reeb graph has become a standard tool in computer graphics, shape analysis, and scientific visualization, the Reeb space is still in the early stages of adoption. Although several algorithms for computing the Reeb space have been proposed, none offer an implementation that is both exact and efficient, which has substantially limited its practical use. To address this gap, we introduce singular arrange and traverse, a new algorithm built upon the arrange and traverse framework [Hristov et al., 2025]. Our method exploits the fact that, in the bivariate case, only singular edges contribute to the structure of Reeb space, allowing us to ignore many regular edges [Tierny and Carr, 2017]. This observation results in substantial efficiency gains on datasets where most edges are regular, which is common in many numerical simulations of physical systems. We provide an implementation of our method and benchmark it against the original arrange and traverse algorithm, showing performance gains of up to four orders of magnitude on real-world datasets.

Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange from Commutativity to Group Laws

Authors: Dung Hoang Duong, Youming Qiao, and Chuanqi Zhang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)


Abstract
In Diffie-Hellman key exchange, the commutativity of power operations is instrumental in the agreement of keys. Viewing commutativity as a law in abelian groups, we propose Diffie-Hellman key exchange in the group action framework (Brassard-Yung, Crypto'90; Ji-Qiao-Song-Yun, TCC'19), for actions of non-abelian groups with laws. The security of this protocol is shown, following Fischlin, Günther, Schmidt, and Warinschi (IEEE S&P'16), based on a pseudorandom group action assumption. A concrete instantiation is proposed based on the monomial code equivalence problem.

Intermittent Computing: Challenges and Opportunities

Authors: Brandon Lucia, Vignesh Balaji, Alexei Colin, Kiwan Maeng, and Emily Ruppel

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 71, 2nd Summit on Advances in Programming Languages (SNAPL 2017)


Abstract
The maturation of energy-harvesting technology and ultra-low-power computer systems has led to the advent of intermittently-powered, batteryless devices that operate entirely using energy extracted from their environment. Intermittently operating devices present a rich vein of programming languages research challenges and the purpose of this paper is to illustrate these challenges to the PL research community. To provide depth, this paper includes a survey of the hardware and software design space of intermittent computing platforms. On the foundation of these research challenges and the state of the art in intermittent hardware and software, this paper describes several future PL research directions, emphasizing a connection between intermittence, distributed computing, energy-aware programming and compilation, and approximate computing. We illustrate these connections with a discussion of our ongoing work on programming for intermittence, and on building and simulating intermittent distributed systems.
