Analysis of greedy approximations with nonsubmodular potential functions
In this paper, we present two techniques to analyze greedy approximation with nonsubmodular functions restricted submodularity and shifted submodularity. As an application of the ...

Floating-point L2-approximations to functions
In the present paper, we investigate the approximation of a function by a polynomial with floating-point coefficients; we are looking for the best approximation in the L2 sense....

Approximation of Pathwidth of Outerplanar Graphs
There exists a polynomial time algorithm to compute the pathwidth of outerplanar graphs [3], but the large exponent makes this algorithm impractical. In this paper, we give an alg...
