Constant-factor approximation algorithms for identifying dynamic communities
We propose two approximation algorithms for identifying communities in dynamic social networks. Communities are intuitively characterized as "unusually densely knit" sub...

Approximation Algorithms and Mechanism Design for Minimax Approval Voting
We consider approval voting elections in which each voter votes for a (possibly empty) set of candidates and the outcome consists of a set of k candidates for some parameter k, e....

Algorithms for Approximate Shortest Path Queries on Weighted Polyhedral Surfaces
We consider the well known geometric problem of determining shortest paths between pairs of points on a polyhedral surface P, where P consists of triangular faces with positive we...

Vertex Cover Approximations on Random Graphs
Abstract. The vertex cover problem is a classical NP-complete problem for which the best worst-case approximation ratio is 2− o(1). In this paper, we use a collection of simple g...

Lattice rule algorithms for multivariate approximation in the average case setting
We study multivariate approximation for continuous functions in the average case setting. The space of d variate continuous functions is equipped with the zero mean Gaussian measu...
