A Reduced Complexity Algorithm for Minimizing N-Detect Tests
? We give a new recursive rounding linear programming (LP) solution to the problem of N-detect test minimzation. This is a polynomialtime solution that closely approximates the exa...

How Well Can Primal-Dual and Local-Ratio Algorithms Perform?
We define an algorithmic paradigm, the stack model, that captures many primal-dual and local-ratio algorithms for approximating covering and packing problems. The stack model is ...

Partial Multicuts in Trees
Let T = (V, E) be an undirected tree, in which each edge is associated with a non-negative cost, and let {s1, t1}, . . . , {sk, tk} be a collection of k distinct pairs of vertices...

Beyond Equilibria: Mechanisms for Repeated Combinatorial Auctions
: We study the design of mechanisms in combinatorial auction domains. We focus on settings where the auction is repeated, motivated by auctions for licenses or advertising space. W...
