Approximating the Maximum Sharing Problem
In the maximum sharing problem (MS), we want to compute a set of (non-simple) paths in an undirected bipartite graph covering as many nodes as possible of the first layer of the ...

Approximating the Maximum Isomorphic Agreement Subtree Is Hard
The Maximum Isomorphic Agreement Subtree (MIT) problem is one of the simplest versions of the Maximum Interval Weight Agreement Subtree method (MIWT) which is used to compare phyl...

Improved Approximation Algorithms for Metric Maximum ATSP and Maximum 3-Cycle Cover Problems
We consider an APX-hard variant (∆-Max-ATSP) and an APX-hard relaxation (Max-3-DCC) of the classical traveling salesman problem. We present a 31 40-approximation algorithm for ...

Approximate Maximum Parsimony and Ancestral Maximum Likelihood
— We explore the maximum parsimony (MP) and ancestral maximum likelihood (AML) criteria in phylogenetic tree reconstruction. Both problems are NP hard, so we seek approximate sol...

Approximability of the Maximum Solution Problem for Certain Families of Algebras
We study the approximability of the maximum solution problem. This problem is an optimisation variant of the constraint satisfaction problem and it captures a wide range of interes...
