An Improved LP-based Approximation for Steiner Tree
The Steiner tree problem is one of the most fundamental ÆÈ-hard problems: given a weighted undirected graph and a subset of terminal nodes, find a minimum weight tree spanning ...

Primal-dual meets local search: approximating MST's with nonuniform degree bounds
We present a new bicriteria approximation algorithm for the degree-bounded minimum-cost spanning tree problem: Given an undirected graph with nonnegative edge weights and degree b...

General approximation schemes for min-max (regret) versions of some (pseudo-)polynomial problems
While the complexity of min-max and min-max regret versions of most classical combinatorial optimization problems has been thoroughly investigated, there are very few studies abou...

Average-Case Analyses of Vickrey Costs
We explore the average-case “Vickrey” cost of structures in a random setting: the Vickrey cost of a shortest path in a complete graph or digraph with random edge weights; the V...

Congestion Games: Optimization in Competition
In a congestion game, several players simultaneously aim at allocating sets of resources, e.g., each player aims at allocating a shortest path between a source/destination pair in ...
