A simple local 3-approximation algorithm for vertex cover
We present a local algorithm (constant-time distributed algorithm) for finding a 3-approximate vertex cover in bounded-degree graphs. The algorithm is deterministic, and no auxiliary information besides port numbering is required. Key words: approximation algorithms, distributed computing, graph algorithms, local algorithms
