Approximating Sparsest Cut in Graphs of Bounded Treewidth
We give the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for Sparsest-Cut with general demands in bounded treewidth graphs. In contrast to previous algorithms, which rely on the f...

Packing: Scheduling, Embedding, and Approximating Metrics
Abstract. Many problems in computer science are related to scheduling problems or embedding problems. Therefore it is an interesting topic to find efficient (approximation) algori...

On Euclidean Embeddings and Bandwidth Minimization
We study Euclidean embeddings of Euclidean metrics and present the following four results: (1) an O(log3 n √ log log n) approximation for minimum bandwidth in conjunction with a ...

A tight bound on approximating arbitrary metrics by tree metrics
In this paper, we show that any n point metric space can be embedded into a distribution over dominating tree metrics such that the expected stretch of any edge is O(log n). This ...

Approximation algorithms for the 0-extension problem
In the 0-extension problem, we are given a weighted graph with some nodes marked as terminals and a semimetric on the set of terminals. Our goal is to assign the rest of the nodes ...
