An Improved Approximation Algorithm for Multiway Cut
Given an undirected graph with edge costs and a subset of k nodes called terminals, a multiway cut is a subset of edges whose removal disconnects each terminal from the rest. Mult...

Coresets, sparse greedy approximation, and the Frank-Wolfe algorithm
The problem of maximizing a concave function f(x) in a simplex S can be solved approximately by a simple greedy algorithm. For given k, the algorithm can find a point x(k) on a k-...

Polynomial Algorithms for Approximating Nash Equilibria of Bimatrix Games
We focus on the problem of computing an -Nash equilibrium of a bimatrix game, when is an absolute constant. We present a simple algorithm for computing a 3 4 -Nash equilibrium for ...

Improved Approximation Algorithms for Relay Placement
In the relay placement problem the input is a set of sensors and a number r 1, the communication range of a relay. In the one-tier version of the problem the objective is to place...

Triangulations Loosing Bundles and Weight
We introduce bundle-free triangulations, that are free of large collection of triangles overlapping a circle empty of vertices. We prove that bundle-free Steiner triangulations ca...
