Abstract

In this work, we propose a solution with sub-logarithmic query time for counting the number of maximal points in an axis parallel query rectangle. The problem has been previously studied in [3]and [5]. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first sub-logarithmic query time solution for the problem. Our model of computation is the word RAM with word size of Θ(logn) bits.

A preliminary version of the paper was accepted in Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry 2012 but was not presented in the venue. Consequently, the paper has been removed from the conference program and the official proceedings.
