On Tree-Constrained Matchings and Generalizations
We consider the following Tree-Constrained Bipartite Matching problem: Given two rooted trees T1 = (V1, E1), T2 = (V2, E2) and a weight function w : V1 × V2 → R+, find a maximu...

Random sampling from a search engine's index
We revisit a problem introduced by Bharat and Broder almost a decade ago: how to sample random pages from the corpus of documents indexed by a search engine, using only the search...

Computing homotopic shortest paths efficiently
Geometric shortest paths are a major topic in computational geometry; see the survey paper by Mitchell [12]. A shortest path between two points in a simple polygon can be found in...

On Approximating Multi-Criteria TSP
Abstract. We present approximation algorithms for almost all variants of the multicriteria traveling salesman problem (TSP), whose performances are independent of the number k of c...

A Near-Tight Bound for the Online Steiner Tree Problem in Graphs of Bounded Asymmetry
The edge asymmetry of a directed, edge-weighted graph is defined as the maximum ratio of the weight of antiparallel edges in the graph, and can be used as a measure of the heterog...
