Faster approximation algorithms for the minimum latency problem
We give a 7.18-approximation algorithm for the minimum latency problem that uses only O(n log n) calls to the prize-collecting Steiner tree (PCST) subroutine of Goemans and Willia...

Improved Approximation Algorithms for Predicting RNA Secondary Structures with Arbitrary Pseudoknots
We study three closely related problems motivated by the prediction of RNA secondary structures with arbitrary pseudoknots: the MAXIMUM BASE PAIR STACKINGS problem proposed by Ieon...

An Approximation Algorithm for the Minimum Latency Set Cover Problem
The input to the minimum latency set cover problem (MLSC) consists of a set of jobs and a set of tools. Each job j needs a specific subset Sj of the tools in order to be processed...

Approximation Algorithms for Single-minded Envy-free Profit-maximization Problems with Limited Supply
We present the first polynomial-time approximation algorithms for single-minded envy-free profit-maximization problems [13] with limited supply. Our algorithms return a pricing sc...

Tight Approximation Ratio of a General Greedy Splitting Algorithm for the Minimum k-Way Cut Problem
For an edge-weighted connected undirected graph, the minimum k-way cut problem is to find a subset of edges of minimum total weight whose removal separates the graph into k connect...
