Consider a rooted directed acyclic graph G = (V, E) with root r, representing a collection V of web pages connected via a set E of hyperlinks. Each node v is associated with the pr...
For a given graph with weighted vertices, the goal of the minimum-weight dominating set problem is to compute a vertex subset of smallest weight such that each vertex of the graph...
We present the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for network design with multiple commodities and economies of scale. We consider the rent-or-buy problem, a type of m...
We study the lower-bounded facility location problem, which generalizes the classical uncapacitated facility location problem in that it comes with lower bound constraints for the...
We consider the classic cake cutting problem where one allocates a divisible cake to n participating agents. Among all valid divisions, fairness and efficiency (a.k.a. social wel...
