We present an approximation scheme for optimizing certain Quadratic Integer Programming problems with positive semidefinite objective functions and global linear constraints. Thi...
In the 0-extension problem, we are given a weighted graph with some nodes marked as terminals and a semimetric on the set of terminals. Our goal is to assign the rest of the nodes ...
We study the generalization of covering problems to partial covering. Here we wish to cover only a desired number of elements, rather than covering all elements as in standard cov...
Given a set system (X, R), the hitting set problem is to find a smallest-cardinality subset H ⊆ X, with the property that each range R ∈ R has a non-empty intersection with H...
Bidimensionality theory appears to be a powerful framework for the development of metaalgorithmic techniques. It was introduced by Demaine et al. [J. ACM 2005 ] as a tool to obtai...
