Improved Approximation Algorithms for the Minimum Latency Problem via Prize-Collecting Strolls
The minimum latency problem (MLP) is a well-studied variant of the traveling salesman problem (TSP). In the MLP, the server's goal is to minimize the average latency that the...

Efficiently Decodable Non-adaptive Group Testing
We consider the following "efficiently decodable" nonadaptive group testing problem. There is an unknown string x {0, 1}n with at most d ones in it. We are allowed to t...

Lower Bounds for Testing Triangle-freeness in Boolean Functions
Let f1, f2, f3 : Fn 2 {0, 1} be three Boolean functions. We say a triple (x, y, x + y) is a triangle in
