We study the approximability of predicates on k variables from a domain [q], and give a new sufficient condition for such predicates to be approximation resistant under the Unique...
We design polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for Metric BISECTION, i.e. dividing a given finite metric space into two halves so as to minimize or maximize the sum of di...

Abstract. We present randomized approximation algorithms for multicriteria Max-TSP. For Max-STSP with k > 1 objective functions, we obtain an approximation ratio of 1 k - for a...
The schedulability analysis problem for many realistic task models is intractable. Therefore known algorithms either have exponential complexity or at best can be solved in pseudo...
We prove that any real matrix A contains a subset of at most 4k/ + 2k log(k + 1) rows whose span "contains" a matrix of rank at most k with error only (1 + ) times the er...
