Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Path and Directed Latency Problems
We study integrality gaps and approximability of two closely related problems on directed graphs. Given a set V of n nodes in an underlying asymmetric metric and two specified nod...

Improved Approximation Algorithms for Relay Placement
In the relay placement problem the input is a set of sensors and a number r 1, the communication range of a relay. In the one-tier version of the problem the objective is to place...

Approximation Algorithms for Orienteering and Discounted-Reward TSP
In this paper, we give the rst constant-factor approximationalgorithmfor the rooted Orienteering problem, as well as a new problem that we call the Discounted-Reward TSP, motivate...

A Polynomial-Time Approximation Scheme for Weighted Planar Graph TSP
Given a planar graph on n nodes with costs weights on its edges, de ne the distance between nodes i and j as the length of the shortest path between i and j. Consider this as an i...

Change Paths in Reasoning!
Millions of research funding has been put down to develop - what I call - old forms - of reasoning that are characterized by strong focus on theoretical properties and strict adher...
