How Well Can Primal-Dual and Local-Ratio Algorithms Perform?
We define an algorithmic paradigm, the stack model, that captures many primal-dual and local-ratio algorithms for approximating covering and packing problems. The stack model is ...

A Deterministic Strongly Polynomial Algorithm for Matrix Scaling and Approximate Permanents
We present a deterministic strongly polynomial algorithm that computes the permanent of a nonnegative n × n matrix to within a multiplicative factor of en. To this end we develop...

Partially ordered knapsack and applications to scheduling
In the partially-ordered knapsack problem (POK) we are given a set N of items and a partial order ≺P on N. Each item has a size and an associated weight. The objective is to pac...

Numerical differentiation by radial basis functions approximation
Based on radial basis functions approximation, we develop in this paper a new computational algorithm for numerical differentiation. Under an a priori and an a posteriori choice r...

The Flow Set with Partial Order
The flow set with partial order is a mixed-integer set described by a budget on total flow and a partial order on the arcs that may carry positive flow. This set is a common substr...
