Dominating Set, Independent Set, Discrete k-Center, Dispersion, and Related Problems for Planar Points in Convex Position

Authors: Anastasiia Tkachenko and Haitao Wang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)

Abstract
Given a set P of n points in the plane, its unit-disk graph G(P) is a graph with P as its vertex set such that two points of P are connected by an edge if their (Euclidean) distance is at most 1. We consider several classical problems on G(P) in a special setting when points of P are in convex position. These problems are all NP-hard in the general case. We present efficient algorithms for these problems under the convex position assumption. ● For the problem of finding the smallest dominating set of G(P), we present an O(knlog n) time algorithm, where k is the smallest dominating set size. We also consider the weighted case in which each point of P has a weight and the goal is to find a dominating set in G(P) with minimum total weight; our algorithm runs in O(n³log² n) time. In particular, for a given k, our algorithm can compute in O(kn²log² n) time a minimum weight dominating set of size at most k (if it exists). ● For the discrete k-center problem, which is to find a subset of k points in P (called centers) for a given k, such that the maximum distance between any point in P and its nearest center is minimized. We present an algorithm that solves the problem in O(min{n^{4/3}log n+knlog² n,k² nlog²n}) time, which is O(n²log² n) in the worst case when k = Θ(n). For comparison, the runtime of the current best algorithm for the continuous version of the problem where centers can be anywhere in the plane is O(n³ log n). ● For the problem of finding a maximum independent set in G(P), we give an algorithm of O(n^{7/2}) time and another randomized algorithm of O(n^{37/11}) expected time, which improve the previous best result of O(n⁶log n) time. Our algorithms can be extended to compute a maximum-weight independent set in G(P) with the same time complexities when points of P have weights. - If we are looking for an (unweighted) independent set of size 3, we derive an algorithm of O(nlog n) time; the previous best algorithm runs in O(n^{4/3}log² n) time (which works for the general case where points of P are not necessarily in convex position). - If points of P have weights and are not necessarily in convex position, we present an algorithm that can find a maximum-weight independent set of size 3 in O(n^{5/3+δ}) time for an arbitrarily small constant δ > 0. By slightly modifying the algorithm, a maximum-weight clique of size 3 can also be found within the same time complexity. ● For the dispersion problem, which is to find a subset of k points from P for a given k, such that the minimum pairwise distance of the points in the subset is maximized. We present an algorithm of O(n^{7/2}log n) time and another randomized algorithm of O(n^{37/11}log n) expected time, which improve the previous best result of O(n⁶) time. - If k = 3, we present an algorithm of O(nlog² n) time and another randomized algorithm of O(nlog n) expected time; the previous best algorithm runs in O(n^{4/3}log² n) time (which works for the general case where points of P are not necessarily in convex position).

Locating Evacuation Centers Optimally in Path and Cycle Networks

Authors: Robert Benkoczi, Binay Bhattacharya, Yuya Higashikawa, Tsunehiko Kameda, Naoki Katoh, and Junichi Teruyama

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 96, 21st Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2021)

Abstract
We present dynamic flow algorithms to solve the k-sink problem whose aim is to locate k sinks (evacuation centers) in such a way that the evacuation time of the last evacuee is minimized. In the confluent model, the evacuees originating from or passing through a vertex must evacuate to the same sink, and most known results on the k-sink problem adopt the confluent model. When the edge capacities are uniform (resp. general), our algorithms for non-confluent flow in the path networks run in O(n + k² log² n) (resp. O(n log(n) + k² log⁵ n)) time, where n is the number of vertices. Our algorithms for cycle networks run in O(k²n log² n) (resp. O(k²n log⁵ n)) time, when the edge capacities are uniform (resp. general).

An O(n^2 log^2 n) Time Algorithm for Minmax Regret Minsum Sink on Path Networks

Authors: Binay Bhattacharya, Yuya Higashikawa, Tsunehiko Kameda, and Naoki Katoh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 123, 29th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2018)

Abstract
We model evacuation in emergency situations by dynamic flow in a network. We want to minimize the aggregate evacuation time to an evacuation center (called a sink) on a path network with uniform edge capacities. The evacuees are initially located at the vertices, but their precise numbers are unknown, and are given by upper and lower bounds. Under this assumption, we compute a sink location that minimizes the maximum "regret." We present the first sub-cubic time algorithm in n to solve this problem, where n is the number of vertices. Although we cast our problem as evacuation, our result is accurate if the "evacuees" are fluid-like continuous material, but is a good approximation for discrete evacuees.
