Beyond Equilibria: Mechanisms for Repeated Combinatorial Auctions
: We study the design of mechanisms in combinatorial auction domains. We focus on settings where the auction is repeated, motivated by auctions for licenses or advertising space. W...

Weighted Low-Rank Approximations
We study the common problem of approximating a target matrix with a matrix of lower rank. We provide a simple and efficient (EM) algorithm for solving weighted low-rank approximat...

Reeb graphs: approximation and persistence
Given a continuous function f : X → IR on a topological space X, its level set f−1 (a) changes continuously as the real value a changes. Consequently, the connected components...

Weighted Geometric Set Cover via Quasi-Uniform Sampling
There has been much progress on geometric set cover problems, but most known techniques only apply to the unweighted setting. For the weighted setting, very few results are known ...

Deterministic Truthful Approximation Mechanisms for Scheduling Related Machines
Abstract. We consider the problem of scheduling jobs on related machines owned by selfish agents and provide the first deterministic mechanisms with constant approximation that a...
