Approximating the Best-Fit Tree Under Lp Norms
Abstract. We consider the problem of fitting an n × n distance matrix M by a tree metric T. We give a factor O(min{n1/p , (k log n)1/p }) approximation algorithm for finding the...

Adaptive Coherent Lp-Norm Combining
— In this paper, we introduce an adaptive Lp–norm metric for robust coherent diversity combining in non–Gaussian noise and interference. We derive a general closed–form exp...

Better bounds for online load balancing on unrelated machines
We study the problem of scheduling permanent jobs on unrelated machines when the objective is to minimize the Lp norm of the machine loads. The problem is known as load balancing ...

LP Rounding Approximation Algorithms for Stochastic Network Design
Real-world networks often need to be designed under uncertainty, with only partial information and predictions of demand available at the outset of the design process. The field ...

Hardness of Nearest Neighbor under L-infinity
Recent years have seen a significant increase in our understanding of high-dimensional nearest neighbor search (NNS) for distances like the 1 and 2 norms. By contrast, our underst...
