An Approximation Algorithm for Weighted Weak Vertex Cover Problem in Undirected Graphs
The problem of efficiently monitoring the network flow is regarded as the one to find out the minimum weighted weak vertex cover set for a given graph G = (V, E) with weight func...

Fast distributed approximation algorithms for vertex cover and set cover in anonymous networks
We present a distributed algorithm that finds a maximal edge packing in O(∆ + log∗ W) synchronous communication rounds in a weighted graph, independent of the number of nodes...

Constant-Time Approximation Algorithms via Local Improvements
We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...

Quadruple systems with independent neighborhoods
A 4-graph is odd if its vertex set can be partitioned into two sets so that every edge intersects both parts in an odd number of points. Let b(n) = max n 3 + (n - ) 3 = 1 2 + o...

An improved constant-time approximation algorithm for maximum~matchings
This paper studies constant-time approximation algorithms for problems on degree-bounded graphs. Let n and d be the number of vertices and the degree bound, respectively. This pap...
