We study the worst-case performance of the maximal matching heuristic applied to the Minimum Vertex Cover and Minimum Maximal Matching problems, through a careful analysis of tigh...
Distance oracles and graph spanners are excerpts of a graph that allow to compute approximate shortest paths. Here, we consider the situation where it is possible to access the ori...
The bandwidth of an n-vertex graph G is the minimum value b such that the vertices of G can be mapped to distinct integer points on a line without any edge being stretched to a di...
: We consider a variety of vehicle routing problems. The input to a problem consists of a graph G = (N, E) and edge lengths l(e) e E. Customers located at the vertices have to be ...
If V is a set of n points in the unit square [0, 1]2 , and if R : V + is an assignment of positive real numbers (radii) to to those points, define a graph G(R) as follows: {v, w}...
