Approximation Algorithms for Euclidean Group TSP
In the Euclidean group Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), we are given a set of points P in the plane and a set of m connected regions, each containing at least one point of P. We w...

Distributed Approximation Algorithms for Finding 2-Edge-Connected Subgraphs
Abstract. We consider the distributed construction of a minimum weight 2edge-connected spanning subgraph (2-ECSS) of a given weighted or unweighted graph. A 2-ECSS of a graph is a ...

Approximate Integer Decompositions for Undirected Network Design Problems
A well-known theorem of Nash-Williams and Tutte gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of k edge-disjoint spanning trees in an undirected graph. A corollary o...

Approximating Fault-Tolerant Group-Steiner Problems
In this paper, we initiate the study of designing approximation algorithms for FaultTolerant Group-Steiner (FTGS) problems. The motivation is to protect the well-studied group-Ste...

An Approximation Algorithm for Computing a Parsimonious First Speciation in the Gene Duplication Model
We consider the following problem: given a forest of gene family trees on a set of genomes, find a first speciation which splits these genomes into two subsets and minimizes the ...
