Playing games with approximation algorithms
In an online linear optimization problem, on each period t, an online algorithm chooses st S from a fixed (possibly infinite) set S of feasible decisions. Nature (who may be adve...

Randomized Approximation Schemes for Scheduling Unrelated Parallel Machines
We consider the problem of Scheduling n Independent Jobs on m Unrelated Parallel Machines, when the number of machines m is xed. We address the standard problem of minimizing the ...

Approximations for the Isoperimetric and Spectral Profile of Graphs and Related Parameters
The spectral profile of a graph is a natural generalization of the classical notion of its Rayleigh quotient. Roughly speaking, given a graph G, for each 0 < < 1, the spect...

The Methods of Approximation and Lifting in Real Computation
The basic motivation behind this work is to tie together various computational complexity classes, whether over different domains such as the naturals or the reals, or whether de...

Approximating the Gaussian Multiple Description Rate Region Under Symmetric Distortion Constraints
We consider multiple description (MD) coding for the Gaussian source with K descriptions under the symmetric meansquared error (MSE) distortion constraints, and provide an approxim...
