Approximation algorithms for finding and partitioning unit-disk graphs into co-k-plexes
This article studies a degree-bounded generalization of independent sets called co-k-plexes. Constant factor approximation algorithms are developed for the maximum co-k-plex probl...

Decomposing Coverings and the Planar Sensor Cover Problem
We show that a k-fold covering using translates of an arbitrary convex polygon can be decomposed into Omega(k) covers (using an efficient algorithm). We generalize this result to ...

On the Hardness of Approximating Multicut and Sparsest-Cut
We show that the Multicut, Sparsest-Cut, and Min-2CNF≡ Deletion problems are NP-hard to approximate within every constant factor, assuming the Unique Games Conjecture of Khot [S...

Approximation Algorithms for Wireless Link Scheduling With SINR-Based Interference
In this paper, we consider the classical problem of link scheduling in wireless networks under an accurate interference model, in which correct packet reception at a receiver node ...

Computing Minimum Diameter Color-Spanning Sets
We study the minimum diameter color-spanning set problem which has recently drawn some attention in the database community. We show that the problem can be solved in polynomial tim...
