Unique Sink Orientations on Grids

Certain linear complementarity problems (LCP) can be transformed into the problem of finding the unique sink in a USO on a cube. USOs on grids can be derived from certain generalized LCPs (GLCP), where the solution to the GLCP corresponds to the unique sink in the grid-USO.
I will present some recent results about USOs on grids, including:
- A characterization which makes it possible to check efficiently if an orientation on a grid is a USO.
- The expected running time of the algorithm Random Facet, which finds the unique sink on a grid-USO.
