In this paper, we consider approximability issues of the following four problems: triangle packing, full sibling reconstruction, maximum profit coverage and 2-coverage. All of th...

Semidefinite programming based approximation algorithms, such as the Goemans and Williamson approximation algorithm for the MAX CUT problem, are usually shown to have certain perf...
We prove that approximating the Max Acyclic Subgraph problem within a factor better than 1/2 is Unique-Games hard. Specifically, for every constant ε > 0 the following holds:...
We study a family of problems, called Maximum Solution, where the objective is to maximise a linear goal function over the feasible integer assignments to a set of variables subjec...
We consider a probabilistic model for the Steiner Tree problem. Under this model the problem is defined in a 2-stage setting over a first-stage complete weighted graph having it...
