Approximate counting by dynamic programming
We give efficient algorithms to sample uniformly, and count approximately, the solutions to a zero-one knapsack problem. The algorithm is based on using dynamic programming to pro...

The Range Assignment Problem in Static Ad-Hoc Networks on Metric Spaces
In this paper we study the range assignment problem in static ad-hoc networks on metric spaces. We consider the h-strong connectivity and h-broadcast problems on trees, high dimens...

Approximating the cut-norm via Grothendieck's inequality
The cut-norm ||A||C of a real matrix A = (aij)iR,jS is the maximum, over all I R, J S of the quantity | iI,jJ aij|. This concept plays a major role in the design of efficient app...

PTAS for geometric hitting set problems via local search
We consider the problem of computing minimum geometric hitting sets in which, given a set of geometric objects and a set of points, the goal is to compute the smallest subset of p...

Hitting forbidden minors: Approximation and Kernelization
We study a general class of problems called F -Deletion problems. In an F -Deletion problem, we are asked whether a subset of at most k vertices can be deleted from a graph G such...
