On the complexity of computational problems regarding distributions (a survey)
We consider two basic computational problems regarding discrete probability distributions: (1) approximating the statistical difference (aka variation distance) between two given d...

Approximation Algorithms for Forests Augmentation Ensuring Two Disjoint Paths of Bounded Length
Given a forest F = (V, E) and a positive integer D, we consider the problem of finding a minimum number of new edges E such that in the augmented graph H = (V, E∪E ) any pair of...

O(log n)-Localized Algorithms on the Coverage Problem in Heterogeneous Sensor Networks
In this paper, we study the Maximum lifetime Target Coverage problem (MTC), which is to maximize the network lifetime while guaranteeing the complete coverage of all the targets. ...

Optimal approximation of elliptic problems by linear and nonlinear mappings II
We study the optimal approximation of the solution of an operator equation A(u) = f by four types of mappings: a) linear mappings of rank n; b) n-term approximation with respect t...

Approximation and Hardness Results for Label Cut and Related Problems
We investigate a natural combinatorial optimization problem called the Label Cut problem. Given an input graph G with a source s and a sink t, the edges of G are classified into ...
