Approximation and Hardness Results for Label Cut and Related Problems
We investigate a natural combinatorial optimization problem called the Label Cut problem. Given an input graph G with a source s and a sink t, the edges of G are classified into ...

Approximation algorithms and hardness results for labeled connectivity problems
Let G = (V, E) be a connected multigraph, whose edges are associated with labels specified by an integer-valued function L : E → N. In addition, each label ℓ ∈ N has a non-...

A Unifying Approach to Hard and Probabilistic Clustering
We derive the clustering problem from first principles showing that the goal of achieving a probabilistic, or ”hard”, multi class clustering result is equivalent to the algeb...

Inapproximability Results for Maximum Edge Biclique, Minimum Linear Arrangement, and Sparsest Cut
We consider the Minimum Linear Arrangement problem and the (Uniform) Sparsest Cut problem. So far, these two notorious NP-hard graph problems have resisted all attempts to prove in...

Hard constraint satisfaction problems have hard gaps at location 1
An instance of the maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP) is a nite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal is to assign values to the variables ...
