Analysis of greedy approximations with nonsubmodular potential functions
In this paper, we present two techniques to analyze greedy approximation with nonsubmodular functions restricted submodularity and shifted submodularity. As an application of the ...

Approximating the Visible Region of a Point on a Terrain
Given a terrain T and a point p on or above it, we wish to compute the region Rp that is visible from p. We present a generic radar-like algorithm for computing an approximation o...

Market equilibrium via the excess demand function
We consider the problem of computing market equilibria and show three results. (i) For exchange economies satisfying weak gross substitutability we analyze a simple discrete versi...

On Khachiyan's algorithm for the computation of minimum-volume enclosing ellipsoids
Given A := {a1, . . . , am} ⊂ Rd whose affine hull is Rd, we study the problems of computing an approximate rounding of the convex hull of A and an approximation to the minimum ...
