A simple local 3-approximation algorithm for vertex cover
We present a local algorithm (constant-time distributed algorithm) for finding a 3-approximate vertex cover in bounded-degree graphs. The algorithm is deterministic, and no auxili...

An optimal local approximation algorithm for max-min linear programs
In a max-min LP, the objective is to maximise subject to Ax 1, Cx 1, and x 0 for nonnegative matrices A and C. We present a local algorithm (constant-time distributed algorith...
