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...

Hardness of the undirected congestion minimization problem
We show that there is no log log M log log log M -approximation for the undirected congestion minimization problem unless NP ZPTIME(npolylog n ), where M is the size of the grap...

Improved Approximations for TSP with Simple Precedence Constraints
In this paper, we consider variants of the traveling salesman problem with precedence constraints. We characterize hard input instances for Christofides' algorithm and Hoogeve...
