In the minimum-cost k-hop spanning tree (k-hop MST) problem, we are given a set S of n points in a metric space, a positive small integer k and a root point r ∈ S. We are intere...
We consider the rooted orienteering problem: Given a set P of n points in the plane, a starting point r P, and a length constraint B, one needs to find a path starting from r tha...
Abstract. We study two-stage, finite-scenario stochastic versions of several combinatorial optimization problems, and provide nearly tight approximation algorithms for them. Our pr...
We consider the problem of finding a maximum number of disjoint paths for unit disks moving amidst static or dynamic obstacles. For the static case we give efficient exact algorit...
