Given an undirected graph, finding either a minimum 2-edge-connected spanning subgraph or a minimum 2vertex-connected (biconnected) spanning subgraph is MaxSNP-hard. We show that ...

A significant Fourier transform (SFT) algorithm, given a threshold and oracle access to a function f, outputs (the frequencies and approximate values of) all the -significant Fou...
Collaborative filtering (CF) shares information between users to provide each with recommendations. Previous work suggests using sketching techniques to handle massive data sets i...
Abstract—Hybrid methods are very popular for solving problems from combinatorial optimization. In contrast to this the theoretical understanding of the interplay of different opt...

We present a polynomial time algorithm based on semidefinite programming that, given a unique game of value 1 − O(1/ log n), satisfies a constant fraction of constraints, wher...
