Abstract. Feige and Kilian [5] showed that finding reasonable approximative solutions to the coloring problem on graphs is hard. This motivates the quest for algorithms that eithe...
A k-majority tournament T on a finite vertex set V is defined by a set of 2k - 1 linear orderings of V, with u v if and only if u lies above v in at least k of the orders. Motiva...

Dealing with the NP-complete Dominating Set problem on graphs, we demonstrate the power of data reduction by preprocessing from a theoretical as well as a practical side. In parti...

Given a record set D and a query score function F, a top-k query returns k records from D, whose values of function F on their attributes are the highest. In this paper, we investi...
