We consider the online search problem in which a server starting at the origin of a $d$-dimensional Euclidean space has to find an arbitrary hyperplane. The best-possible competitive ratio and the length of the shortest curve from which each point on the $d$-dimensional unit sphere can be seen are within a constant factor of each other. We show that this length is in $Omega(d)cap O(d^{3/2})$.

In this paper, we study the online Euclidean spanners problem for points in $mathbb{R}^d$. Suppose we are given a sequence of $n$ points $(s_1,s_2,ldots, s_n)$ in $mathbb{R}^d$, where point $s_i$ is presented in step~$i$ for $i=1,ldots, n$. The objec tive of an online algorithm is to maintain a geometric $t$-spanner on $S_i={s_1,ldots, s_i}$ for each step~$i$. First, we establish a lower bound of $Omega(varepsilon^{-1}log n / log varepsilon^{-1})$ for the competitive ratio of any online $(1+varepsilon)$-spanner algorithm, for a sequence of $n$ points in 1-dimension. We show that this bound is tight, and there is an online algorithm that can maintain a $(1+varepsilon)$-spanner with competitive ratio $O(varepsilon^{-1}log n / log varepsilon^{-1})$. Next, we design online algorithms for sequences of points in $mathbb{R}^d$, for any constant $dge 2$, under the $L_2$ norm. We show that previously known incremental algorithms achieve a competitive ratio $O(varepsilon^{-(d+1)}log n)$. However, if the algorithm is allowed to use additional points (Steiner points), then it is possible to substantially improve the competitive ratio in terms of $varepsilon$. We describe an online Steiner $(1+varepsilon)$-spanner algorithm with competitive ratio $O(varepsilon^{(1-d)/2} log n)$. As a counterpart, we show that the dependence on $n$ cannot be eliminated in dimensions $d ge 2$. In particular, we prove that any online spanner algorithm for a sequence of $n$ points in $mathbb{R}^d$ under the $L_2$ norm has competitive ratio $Omega(f(n))$, where $lim_{nrightarrow infty}f(n)=infty$. Finally, we provide improved lower bounds under the $L_1$ norm: $Omega(varepsilon^{-2}/log varepsilon^{-1})$ in the plane and $Omega(varepsilon^{-d})$ in $mathbb{R}^d$ for $dgeq 3$.

Given a set of pairwise disjoint polygonal obstacles in the plane, finding an obstacle-avoiding Euclidean shortest path between two points is a classical problem in computational geometry and has been studied extensively. Previously, Hershberger and Suri [SIAM J. Comput. 1999] gave an algorithm of $O(nlog n)$ time and $O(nlog n)$ space, where $n$ is the total number of vertices of all obstacles. Recently, by modifying Hershberger and Suris algorithm, Wang [SODA 2021] reduced the space to $O(n)$ while the runtime of the algorithm is still $O(nlog n)$. In this paper, we present a new algorithm of $O(n+hlog h)$ time and $O(n)$ space, provided that a triangulation of the free space is given, where $h$ is the number of obstacles. The algorithm, which improves the previous work when $h=o(n)$, is optimal in both time and space as $Omega(n+hlog h)$ is a lower bound on the runtime. Our algorithm builds a shortest path map for a source point $s$, so that given any query point $t$, the shortest path length from $s$ to $t$ can be computed in $O(log n)$ time and a shortest $s$-$t$ path can be produced in additional time linear in the number of edges of the path.

The Split Packing algorithm cite{splitpacking_ws, splitpackingsoda, splitpacking} is an offline algorithm that packs a set of circles into triangles and squares up to critical density. In this paper, we develop an online alternative to Split Packing to handle an online sequence of insertions and deletions, where the algorithm is allowed to reallocate circles into new positions at a cost proportional to their areas. The algorithm can be used to pack circles into squares and right angled triangles. If only insertions are considered, our algorithm is also able to pack to critical density, with an amortised reallocation cost of $O(clog frac{1}{c})$ for squares, and $O(c(1+s^2)log_{1+s^2}frac{1}{c})$ for right angled triangles, where $s$ is the ratio of the lengths of the second shortest side to the shortest side of the triangle, when inserting a circle of area $c$. When insertions and deletions are considered, we achieve a packing density of $(1-epsilon)$ of the critical density, where $epsilon>0$ can be made arbitrarily small, with an amortised reallocation cost of $O(c(1+s^2)log_{1+s^2}frac{1}{c} + cfrac{1}{epsilon})$.
We present time-space trade-offs for computing the Euclidean minimum spanning tree of a set $S$ of $n$ point-sites in the plane. More precisely, we assume that $S$ resides in a random-access memory that can only be read. The edges of the Euclidean mi nimum spanning tree $text{EMST}(S)$ have to be reported sequentially, and they cannot be accessed or modified afterwards. There is a parameter $s in {1, dots, n}$ so that the algorithm may use $O(s)$ cells of read-write memory (called the workspace) for its computations. Our goal is to find an algorithm that has the best possible running time for any given $s$ between $1$ and $n$. We show how to compute $text{EMST}(S)$ in $Obig((n^3/s^2)log s big)$ time with $O(s)$ cells of workspace, giving a smooth trade-off between the two best known bounds $O(n^3)$ for $s = 1$ and $O(n log n)$ for $s = n$. For this, we run Kruskals algorithm on the relative neighborhood graph (RNG) of $S$. It is a classic fact that the minimum spanning tree of $text{RNG}(S)$ is exactly $text{EMST}(S)$. To implement Kruskals algorithm with $O(s)$ cells of workspace, we define $s$-nets, a compact representation of planar graphs. This allows us to efficiently maintain and update the components of the current minimum spanning forest as the edges are being inserted.
The greedy spanner is a high-quality spanner: its total weight, edge count and maximal degree are asymptotically optimal and in practice significantly better than for any other spanner with reasonable construction time. Unfortunately, all known algor ithms that compute the greedy spanner of n points use Omega(n^2) space, which is impractical on large instances. To the best of our knowledge, the largest instance for which the greedy spanner was computed so far has about 13,000 vertices. We present a O(n)-space algorithm that computes the same spanner for points in R^d running in O(n^2 log^2 n) time for any fixed stretch factor and dimension. We discuss and evaluate a number of optimizations to its running time, which allowed us to compute the greedy spanner on a graph with a million vertices. To our knowledge, this is also the first algorithm for the greedy spanner with a near-quadratic running time guarantee that has actually been implemented.
