Approximation Algorithms for Multicommodity-Type Problems with Guarantees Independent of the Graph Size
— Linial, London and Rabinovich [16] and Aumann and Rabani [3] proved that the min-cut max-flow ratio for general maximum concurrent flow problems (when there are k commodities...

Playing games with approximation algorithms
In an online linear optimization problem, on each period t, an online algorithm chooses st S from a fixed (possibly infinite) set S of feasible decisions. Nature (who may be adve...

Quantum t-designs: t-wise Independence in the Quantum World
A t-design for quantum states is a finite set of quantum states with the property of simulating the Haar-measure on quantum states w.r.t. any test that uses at most t copies of a...

Weighted Set-Based String Similarity
Consider a universe of tokens, each of which is associated with a weight, and a database consisting of strings that can be represented as subsets of these tokens. Given a query st...

Parameterized Algorithms for the Independent Set Problem in Some Hereditary Graph Classes
The maximum independent set problem is NP-complete for graphs in general, but becomes solvable in polynomial time when restricted to graphs in many special classes. The problem is ...
