A dynamic data structure for approximate range searching
In this paper, we introduce a simple, randomized dynamic data structure for storing multidimensional point sets, called a quadtreap. This data structure is a randomized, balanced ...

Clustering with or without the Approximation
We study algorithms for clustering data that were recently proposed by Balcan, Blum and Gupta in SODA’09 [4] and that have already given rise to two follow-up papers. The input f...

Approximation Schemes for Steiner Forest on Planar Graphs and Graphs of Bounded Treewidth
We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, w...
