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 ...

Near-Linear Time Construction of Sparse Neighborhood Covers
This paper introduces a near-linear time sequential algorithm for constructing a sparse neighborhood cover. This implies analogous improvements (from quadratic to near-linear time)...

Fast construction of nets in low dimensional metrics, and their applications
We present a near linear time algorithm for constructing hierarchical nets in finite metric spaces with constant doubling dimension. This data-structure is then applied to obtain...

Improved algorithms for orienteering and related problems
In this paper we consider the orienteering problem in undirected and directed graphs and obtain improved approximation algorithms. The point to point-orienteering-problem is the f...
