Labeling Schemes for Bounded Degree Graphs
We investigate adjacency labeling schemes for graphs of bounded degree
. In particular, we present an optimal (up to an additive
constant) adjacency labeling scheme for bounded degree trees.
The latter scheme is derived from a labeling scheme for bounded degree
outerplanar graphs. Our results complement a similar bound recently obtained
for bounded depth trees [Fraigniaud and Korman, SODA 10], and may provide new
insights for closing the long standing gap for adjacency in trees [Alstrup and
Rauhe, FOCS 02]. We also provide improved labeling schemes for bounded degree
planar graphs. Finally, we use combinatorial number systems and present an
improved adjacency labeling schemes for graphs of bounded degree with
Gabriel Triangulations and Angle-Monotone Graphs: Local Routing and Recognition
A geometric graph is angle-monotone if every pair of vertices has a path
between them that---after some rotation---is - and -monotone.
Angle-monotone graphs are -spanners and they are increasing-chord
graphs. Dehkordi, Frati, and Gudmundsson introduced angle-monotone graphs in
2014 and proved that Gabriel triangulations are angle-monotone graphs. We give
a polynomial time algorithm to recognize angle-monotone geometric graphs. We
prove that every point set has a plane geometric graph that is generalized
angle-monotone---specifically, we prove that the half--graph is
generalized angle-monotone. We give a local routing algorithm for Gabriel
triangulations that finds a path from any vertex to any vertex whose
length is within times the Euclidean distance from to .
Finally, we prove some lower bounds and limits on local routing algorithms on
Gabriel triangulations.Comment: Appears in the Proceedings of the 24th International Symposium on

Verifying Safety Properties With the TLA+ Proof System
TLAPS, the TLA+ proof system, is a platform for the development and
mechanical verification of TLA+ proofs written in a declarative style requiring
little background beyond elementary mathematics. The language supports
hierarchical and non-linear proof construction and verification, and it is
independent of any verification tool or strategy. A Proof Manager uses backend
verifiers such as theorem provers, proof assistants, SMT solvers, and decision
procedures to check TLA+ proofs. This paper documents the first public release
of TLAPS, distributed with a BSD-like license. It handles almost all the
non-temporal part of TLA+ as well as the temporal reasoning needed to prove
standard safety properties, in particular invariance and step simulation, but
not liveness properties
Trace Spaces: an Efficient New Technique for State-Space Reduction
State-space reduction techniques, used primarily in model-checkers, all rely
on the idea that some actions are independent, hence could be taken in any
(respective) order while put in parallel, without changing the semantics. It is
thus not necessary to consider all execution paths in the interleaving
semantics of a concurrent program, but rather some equivalence classes. The
purpose of this paper is to describe a new algorithm to compute such
equivalence classes, and a representative per class, which is based on ideas
originating in algebraic topology. We introduce a geometric semantics of
concurrent languages, where programs are interpreted as directed topological
spaces, and study its properties in order to devise an algorithm for computing
dihomotopy classes of execution paths. In particular, our algorithm is able to
compute a control-flow graph for concurrent programs, possibly containing
loops, which is "as reduced as possible" in the sense that it generates traces
modulo equivalence. A preliminary implementation was achieved, showing
promising results towards efficient methods to analyze concurrent programs,
with very promising results compared to partial-order reduction techniques

Drawing Planar Graphs with Few Geometric Primitives
We define the \emph{visual complexity} of a plane graph drawing to be the
number of basic geometric objects needed to represent all its edges. In
particular, one object may represent multiple edges (e.g., one needs only one
line segment to draw a path with an arbitrary number of edges). Let denote
the number of vertices of a graph. We show that trees can be drawn with
straight-line segments on a polynomial grid, and with straight-line
segments on a quasi-polynomial grid. Further, we present an algorithm for
drawing planar 3-trees with segments on an
grid. This algorithm can also be used with a small modification to draw maximal
outerplanar graphs with edges on an grid. We also
study the problem of drawing maximal planar graphs with circular arcs and
provide an algorithm to draw such graphs using only arcs. This is
significantly smaller than the lower bound of for line segments for a
nontrivial graph class.Comment: Appeared at Proc. 43rd International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic

Contact Representations of Graphs in 3D
We study contact representations of graphs in which vertices are represented
by axis-aligned polyhedra in 3D and edges are realized by non-zero area common
boundaries between corresponding polyhedra. We show that for every 3-connected
planar graph, there exists a simultaneous representation of the graph and its
dual with 3D boxes. We give a linear-time algorithm for constructing such a
representation. This result extends the existing primal-dual contact
representations of planar graphs in 2D using circles and triangles. While
contact graphs in 2D directly correspond to planar graphs, we next study
representations of non-planar graphs in 3D. In particular we consider
representations of optimal 1-planar graphs. A graph is 1-planar if there exists
a drawing in the plane where each edge is crossed at most once, and an optimal
n-vertex 1-planar graph has the maximum (4n - 8) number of edges. We describe a
linear-time algorithm for representing optimal 1-planar graphs without
separating 4-cycles with 3D boxes. However, not every optimal 1-planar graph
admits a representation with boxes. Hence, we consider contact representations
with the next simplest axis-aligned 3D object, L-shaped polyhedra. We provide a
quadratic-time algorithm for representing optimal 1-planar graph with L-shaped
polyhedra
Two Bessel Bridges Conditioned Never to Collide, Double Dirichlet Series, and Jacobi Theta Function
It is known that the moments of the maximum value of a one-dimensional
conditional Brownian motion, the three-dimensional Bessel bridge with duration
1 started from the origin, are expressed using the Riemann zeta function. We
consider a system of two Bessel bridges, in which noncolliding condition is
imposed. We show that the moments of the maximum value is then expressed using
the double Dirichlet series, or using the integrals of products of the Jacobi
theta functions and its derivatives. Since the present system will be provided
as a diffusion scaling limit of a version of vicious walker model, the ensemble
of 2-watermelons with a wall, the dominant terms in long-time asymptotics of
moments of height of 2-watermelons are completely determined. For the height of
2-watermelons with a wall, the average value was recently studied by Fulmek by
a method of enumerative combinatorics.Comment: v2: LaTeX, 19 pages, 2 figures, minor corrections made for

A Semantic Completeness Proof for TaMeD
International audienceDeduction modulo is a theoretical framework designed to introduce computational steps in deductive systems. This approach is well suited to automated theorem proving and a tableau method for first-order classical deduction modulo has been developed. We reformulate this method and give an (almost constructive) semantic completeness proof. This new proof allows us to extend the completeness theorem to several classes of rewrite systems used for computations in deduction modulo. We are then able to build a counter-model when a proof fails for these systems
