An approximation algorithm for network design problems with downwards-monotone demand functions
Building on an existing 2-approximate algorithm for the class of network design problems with downwards-monotone demand functions, many of which are NP-hard, we present an algorith...

Approximation Algorithms for Multi-Criteria Traveling Salesman Problems
In multi-criteria optimization, several objective functions are to be optimized. Since the different objective functions are usually in conflict with each other, one cannot conside...

Approximation Algorithms for Flexible Job Shop Problems
The Flexible Job Shop problem is a generalization of the classical job shop scheduling problem in which for every operation there is a group of machines that can process it. The p...

An Approximation Algorithm for the Disjoint Paths Problem in Even-Degree Planar Graphs
In joint work with ´Eva Tardos in 1995, we asked whether it was possible to obtain a polynomial-time, polylogarithmic approximation algorithm for the disjoint paths problem in th...

Faster approximation schemes for fractional multicommodity flow problems via dynamic graph algorithms
We combine the work of Garg and K¨onemann, and Fleischer with ideas from dynamic graph algorithms to obtain faster (1 − ε)-approximation schemes for various versions of the mu...
