Improved Approximation for the Directed Spanner Problem
We present an O( √ n log n)-approximation algorithm for the problem of finding the sparsest spanner of a given directed graph G on n vertices. A spanner of a graph is a sparse ...

Approximation Algorithms for Partial Covering Problems
We study the generalization of covering problems to partial covering. Here we wish to cover only a desired number of elements, rather than covering all elements as in standard cov...

Approximation and Complexity of k-Splittable Flows
Given a graph with a source and a sink node, the NP–hard maximum k–splittable flow (MkSF) problem is to find a flow of maximum value with a flow decomposition using at most...
