We establish the first polynomial-strength time-space lower bounds for problems in the lineartime hierarchy on randomized machines with two-sided error. We show that for any inte...
Virtual Private Network Design is the following NP-hard problem. We are given a communication network, represented as a weighted graph with thresholds on the nodes which represent...

Abstract. This paper considers the Steiner tree problem in the model of twostage stochastic optimization with recourse. This model, the focus of much recent research [1–4], tries...
In this paper we initiate the study of the AND-OR directed feedback vertex set problem from the viewpoint of approximation algorithms. This AND-OR feedback vertex set problem is m...

In this paper we initiate the study of discrete random variables over domains. Our work is inspired by work of Daniele Varacca, who devised indexed valuations as models of probabi...
