On the Expected Performance of Path Compression Algorithms
We consider the expected running time of an equivalence algorithm using the path compression rule (but not the weighting rule). An $O(n)$ expected running time is proved for the execution of a random ...

Simplicity, Relativizations and Nondeterminism
Relativizations of complexity classes in which simple sets exist are considered. A recursive oracle is constructed relative to which a simple set exists for NP. Some other general theorems are proven,...

Given $n$ points in the plane, we present algorithms for finding maximum perimeter or area convex $k$-gons with vertices $k$ of the given $n$ points. Our algorithms work in linear space and time $O(kn\lg n + n\lg ^2 n)$. For the special case $k = 3$ we give $O(n\lg n)$ algorithms for these problems. Several related issues are discussed. ©1985 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics
