Analysis of approximate nearest neighbor searching with clustered point sets
Abstract. Nearest neighbor searching is a fundamental computational problem. A set of n data points is given in real d-dimensional space, and the problem is to preprocess these poi...

Deterministic 7/8-Approximation for the Metric Maximum TSP
We present the first 7/8-approximation algorithm for the maximum traveling salesman problem with triangle inequality. Our algorithm is deterministic. This improves over both the r...

Logarithmic hardness of the directed congestion minimization problem
We show that for any constant ε > 0, there is no Ω(log1−ε M)approximation algorithm for the directed congestion minimization problem on networks of size M unless NP ⊆ Z...
