Convex Graph Invariants
The structural properties of graphs are usually characterized in terms of invariants, which are functions of graphs that do not depend on the labeling of the nodes. In this paper ...

Approximation Algorithms for Non-single-minded Profit-Maximization Problems with Limited Supply
We consider profit-maximization problems for combinatorial auctions with non-single minded valuation functions and limited supply. We obtain fairly general results that relate the ...

Hard constraint satisfaction problems have hard gaps at location 1
An instance of the maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP) is a nite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal is to assign values to the variables ...

Lattices that admit logarithmic worst-case to average-case connection factors
We demonstrate an average-case problem that is as hard as finding (n)-approximate shortest vectors in certain n-dimensional lattices in the worst case, where (n) = O( log n). The...

Semidefinite Programming Based Approximation Algorithms
Semidefinite programming based approximation algorithms, such as the Goemans and Williamson approximation algorithm for the MAX CUT problem, are usually shown to have certain perf...
