Efficient algorithms are presented for constructing spanners in geometric intersection graphs. For a unit ball graph in R^k, a (1+epsilon)-spanner is obtained using efficient partitioning of the space into hypercubes and solving bichromatic closest pair problems. The spanner construction has almost equivalent complexity to the construction of Euclidean minimum spanning trees. The results are extended to arbitrary ball graphs with a sub-quadratic running time. For unit ball graphs, the spanners have a small separator decomposition which can be used to obtain efficient algorithms for approximating proximity problems like diameter and distance queries. The results on compressed quadtrees, geometric graph separators, and diameter approximation might be of independent interest.

Let $mathcal{D}$ be a set of $n$ disks in the plane. The disk graph $G_mathcal{D}$ for $mathcal{D}$ is the undirected graph with vertex set $mathcal{D}$ in which two disks are joined by an edge if and only if they intersect. The directed transmission
graph $G^{rightarrow}_mathcal{D}$ for $mathcal{D}$ is the directed graph with vertex set $mathcal{D}$ in which there is an edge from a disk $D_1 in mathcal{D}$ to a disk $D_2 in mathcal{D}$ if and only if $D_1$ contains the center of $D_2$. Given $mathcal{D}$ and two non-intersecting disks $s, t in mathcal{D}$, we show that a minimum $s$-$t$ vertex cut in $G_mathcal{D}$ or in $G^{rightarrow}_mathcal{D}$ can be found in $O(n^{3/2}text{polylog} n)$ expected time. To obtain our result, we combine an algorithm for the maximum flow problem in general graphs with dynamic geometric data structures to manipulate the disks. As an application, we consider the barrier resilience problem in a rectangular domain. In this problem, we have a vertical strip $S$ bounded by two vertical lines, $L_ell$ and $L_r$, and a collection $mathcal{D}$ of disks. Let $a$ be a point in $S$ above all disks of $mathcal{D}$, and let $b$ a point in $S$ below all disks of $mathcal{D}$. The task is to find a curve from $a$ to $b$ that lies in $S$ and that intersects as few disks of $mathcal{D}$ as possible. Using our improved algorithm for minimum cuts in disk graphs, we can solve the barrier resilience problem in $O(n^{3/2}text{polylog} n)$ expected time.
Let $P subset mathbb{R}^2$ be a planar $n$-point set such that each point $p in P$ has an associated radius $r_p > 0$. The transmission graph $G$ for $P$ is the directed graph with vertex set $P$ such that for any $p, q in P$, there is an edge from $
p$ to $q$ if and only if $d(p, q) leq r_p$. Let $t > 1$ be a constant. A $t$-spanner for $G$ is a subgraph $H subseteq G$ with vertex set $P$ so that for any two vertices $p,q in P$, we have $d_H(p, q) leq t d_G(p, q)$, where $d_H$ and $d_G$ denote the shortest path distance in $H$ and $G$, respectively (with Euclidean edge lengths). We show how to compute a $t$-spanner for $G$ with $O(n)$ edges in $O(n (log n + log Psi))$ time, where $Psi$ is the ratio of the largest and smallest radius of a point in $P$. Using more advanced data structures, we obtain a construction that runs in $O(n log^5 n)$ time, independent of $Psi$. We give two applications for our spanners. First, we show how to use our spanner to find a BFS tree in $G$ from any given start vertex in $O(n log n)$ time (in addition to the time it takes to build the spanner). Second, we show how to use our spanner to extend a reachability oracle to answer geometric reachability queries. In a geometric reachability query we ask whether a vertex $p$ in $G$ can reach a target $q$ which is an arbitrary point in the plane (rather than restricted to be another vertex $q$ of $G$ in a standard reachability query). Our spanner allows the reachability oracle to answer geometric reachability queries with an additive overhead of $O(log nlog Psi)$ to the query time and $O(n log Psi)$ to the space.
For any constants $dge 1$, $epsilon >0$, $t>1$, and any $n$-point set $Psubsetmathbb{R}^d$, we show that there is a geometric graph $G=(P,E)$ having $O(nlog^2 nloglog n)$ edges with the following property: For any $Fsubseteq P$, there exists $F^+sups
eteq F$, $|F^+| le (1+epsilon)|F|$ such that, for any pair $p,qin Psetminus F^+$, the graph $G-F$ contains a path from $p$ to $q$ whose (Euclidean) length is at most $t$ times the Euclidean distance between $p$ and $q$. In the terminology of robust spanners (Bose et al, SICOMP, 42(4):1720--1736, 2013) the graph $G$ is a $(1+epsilon)k$-robust $t$-spanner of $P$. This construction is sparser than the recent constructions of Buchin, Ol`ah, and Har-Peled (arXiv:1811.06898) who prove the existence of $(1+epsilon)k$-robust $t$-spanners with $nlog^{O(d)} n$ edges.
Resolving an open question from 2006, we prove the existence of light-weight bounded-degree spanners for unit ball graphs in the metrics of bounded doubling dimension, and we design a simple $mathcal{O}(log^*n)$-round distributed algorithm that given
a unit ball graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and a positive constant $epsilon < 1$ finds a $(1+epsilon)$-spanner with constant bounds on its maximum degree and its lightness using only 2-hop neighborhood information. This immediately improves the algorithm of Damian, Pandit, and Pemmaraju which runs in $mathcal{O}(log^*n)$ rounds but has a $mathcal{O}(log Delta)$ bound on its lightness, where $Delta$ is the ratio of the length of the longest edge in $G$ to the length of the shortest edge. We further study the problem in the two dimensional Euclidean plane and we provide a construction with similar properties that has a constant average number of edge intersection per node. This is the first distributed low-intersection topology control algorithm to the best of our knowledge. Our distributed algorithms rely on the maximal independent set algorithm of Schneider and Wattenhofer that runs in $mathcal{O}(log^*n)$ rounds of communication. If a maximal independent set is known beforehand, our algorithms run in constant number of rounds.
A conflict-free $k$-coloring of a graph $G=(V,E)$ assigns one of $k$ different colors to some of the vertices such that, for every vertex $v$, there is a color that is assigned to exactly one vertex among $v$ and $v$s neighbors. Such colorings have a
pplications in wireless networking, robotics, and geometry, and are well studied in graph theory. Here we study the conflict-free coloring of geometric intersection graphs. We demonstrate that the intersection graph of $n$ geometric objects without fatness properties and size restrictions may have conflict-free chromatic number in $Omega(log n/loglog n)$ and in $Omega(sqrt{log n})$ for disks or squares of different sizes; it is known for general graphs that the worst case is in $Theta(log^2 n)$. For unit-disk intersection graphs, we prove that it is NP-complete to decide the existence of a conflict-free coloring with one color; we also show that six colors always suffice, using an algorithm that colors unit disk graphs of restricted height with two colors. We conjecture that four colors are sufficient, which we prove for unit squares instead of unit disks. For interval graphs, we establish a tight worst-case bound of two.
