Abstract. This paper deals with approximations of maximum independent sets in non-uniform hypergraphs of low degree. We obtain the first performance ratio that is sublinear in term...
This work is motivated by the long-standing open problem of designing a polynomial-time algorithm that with high probability constructs an asymptotically maximum independent set in...

The maximum independent set problem is NP-complete for graphs in general, but becomes solvable in polynomial time when restricted to graphs in many special classes. The problem is ...
Given an undirected graph with n nodes, the Maximum Leaf Spanning Tree problem is to find a spanning tree with as many leaves as possible. When parameterized in the number of leav...

Abstract--In this paper, we investigate the use of messagepassing algorithms for the problem of finding the max-weight independent set (MWIS) in a graph. First, we study the perfor...
