Approximation schemes for clustering problems
We present a general approach for designing approximation algorithms for a fundamental class of geometric clustering problems in arbitrary dimensions. More specifically, our appro...

A Note on Approximating MAX-BISECTION on Regular Graphs
We design a 0:795 approximation algorithm for the Max-Bisection problem restricted to regular graphs. In the case of three regular graphs our results imply an approximation ratio ...

Approximating Steiner Networks with Node-Weights
The (undirected) Steiner Network problem is: given a graph = ( , ) with edge/node-weights and edge-connectivity requirements { ( , ) : , }, find a minimumweight subgraph of conta...

Deconstructing approximate offsets
We consider the offset-deconstruction problem: Given a polygonal shape Q with n vertices, can it be expressed, up to a tolerance ε in Hausdorff distance, as the Minkowski sum o...

On the complexity of computational problems regarding distributions (a survey)
We consider two basic computational problems regarding discrete probability distributions: (1) approximating the statistical difference (aka variation distance) between two given d...
