| Abstract | We present a number of new results on one of the most extensively studied topics in computational geometry, orthogonal range searching. All our results are in the standard word RAM model: We present two data structures for 2-d orthogonal range emptiness. The first achieves O(n lg lg n) space and O(lg lg n) query time, assuming that the n given points are in rank space. This improves the previous results by Alstrup, Brodal, and Rauhe (FOCS'00), with O(n $lg^{ε}$ n) space and O(lg lg n) query time, or with O(n lg lg n) space and $O(lg^{2}lg$ n) query time. Our second data structure uses O(n) space and answers queries in $O(lg^{ε}$ n) time. The best previous O(n)-space data structure, due to Nekrich (WADS'07), answers queries in O(lg n/lg lg n) time. We give a data structure for 3-d orthogonal range reporting with O(n $lg^{1+ε}$ n) space and O(lg lg n + k) query time for points in rank space, for any constant ε>0. This improves the previous results by Afshani (ESA'08), Karpinski and Nekrich (COCOON'09), and Chan (SODA'11), with O(n $lg^{3}$ n) space and O(lg lg n + k) query time, or with O(n $lg^{1+ε}n)$ space and $O(lg^{2}lg$ n + k) query time. Consequently, we obtain improved upper bounds for orthogonal range reporting in all constant dimensions above 3. Our approach also leads to a new data structure for 2D orthogonal range minimum queries with O(n $lg^{ε}$ n) space and O(lg lg n) query time for points in rank space. We give a randomized algorithm for 4-d offline dominance range reporting/emptiness with running time O(n log n) plus the output size. This resolves two open problems (both appeared in Preparata and Shamos' seminal book): given a set of n axis-aligned rectangles in the plane, we can report all k enclosure pairs (i.e., pairs $(r_{1},r_{2})$ where rectangle $r_{1}$ completely encloses rectangle $r_{2})$ in O(n lg n + k) expected time; given a set of n points in 4-d, we can find all maximal points (points not dominated by any other points) in O(n lg n) expected time. The most recent previous development on (a) was reported back in SoCG'95 by Gupta, Janardan, Smid, and Dasgupta, whose main result was an O([n lg n + k] lg lg n) algorithm. The best previous result on (b) was an O(n lg n lg lg n) algorithm due to Gabow, Bentley, and Tarjan---from STOC'84! As a consequence, we also obtain the current-record time bound for the maxima problem in all constant dimensions above~4. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
