On Approximating Optimal Weighted Lobbying, and Frequency of Correctness Versus Average-Case Polynomial Time
We investigate issues regarding two hard problems related to voting, the optimal weighted lobbying problem and the winner problem for Dodgson elections. Regarding the former, Chris...

Analysis of greedy approximations with nonsubmodular potential functions
In this paper, we present two techniques to analyze greedy approximation with nonsubmodular functions restricted submodularity and shifted submodularity. As an application of the ...

Balanced graph partitioning
We consider the problem of partitioning a graph into k components of roughly equal size while minimizing the capacity of the edges between different components of the cut. In part...

Deterministic 7/8-Approximation for the Metric Maximum TSP
We present the first 7/8-approximation algorithm for the maximum traveling salesman problem with triangle inequality. Our algorithm is deterministic. This improves over both the r...

A Polynomial Time Approximation Scheme for the Square Packing Problem
Given a set Q of squares with positive pro ts, the square packing problem is to select and pack a subset of squares of maximum pro t into a rectangular bin R. We present a polynomi...
