Interval Stabbing Problems in Small Integer Ranges

چکیده
Given a set I of n intervals, a stabbing query consists of a point q and asks for all intervals in I that contain q. The Interval Stabbing Problem is to find a data structure that can handle stabbing queries efficiently. We propose a new, simple and optimal approach for different kinds of interval stabbing problems in a static setting where the query points and interval ends are in {1, . . . , O(n)}. keywords: interval stabbing, interval intersection, rank space, static, discrete, point enclosure

Partial multicovering and the d-consecutive ones property
A d-interval is the union of d disjoint intervals on the real line. In the d-interval stabbing problem (d-is) we are given a set of d-intervals and a set of points, each d-interval I has a stabbing requirement r(I) and each point has a weight, and the goal is to find a minimum weight multiset of points that stabs each d-interval I at least r(I) times. In practice there is a trade-off between fu...

The (axis-parallel) stabbing number of a given set of line segments is the maximum number of segments that can be intersected by any one (axis-parallel) line. This paper deals with finding perfect matchings, spanning trees, or triangulations of minimum stabbing number for a given set of points. The complexity of these problems has been a long-standing open question; in fact, it is one of the or...
متن کاملStabbing Planes
We introduce and develop a new semi-algebraic proof system, called Stabbing Planes that is in the style of DPLL-based modern SAT solvers. As with DPLL, there is only one rule: the current polytope can be subdivided by branching on an inequality and its “integer negation.” That is, we can (nondeterministically choose) a hyperplane ax ≥ b with integer coefficients, which partitions the polytope i...
متن کاملModeling and scheduling no-idle hybrid flow shop problems
Although several papers have studied no-idle scheduling problems, they all focus on flow shops, assuming one processor at each working stage. But, companies commonly extend to hybrid flow shops by duplicating machines in parallel in stages. This paper considers the problem of scheduling no-idle hybrid flow shops. A mixed integer linear programming model is first developed to mathematically form...
متن کاملThe Approximability and Integrality Gap of Interval Stabbing and Independence Problems
Motivated by problems such as rectangle stabbing in the plane, we study the minimum hitting set and maximum independent set problems for families of d-intervals and d-union-intervals. We obtain the following: (1) constructions yielding asymptotically tight lower bounds on the integrality gaps of the associated natural linear programming relaxations; (2) an LP-relative dapproximation for the hit...
