Distributed and parallel algorithms for weighted vertex cover and other covering problems
The paper presents distributed and parallel -approximation algorithms for covering problems, where is the maximum number of variables on which any constraint depends (for example...

Computing Betti Numbers via Combinatorial Laplacians
We use the Laplacian and power method to compute Betti numbers of simplicial complexes. This has a number of advantages over other methods, both in theory and in practice. It requ...

On Parameterized Approximability
Abstract. Combining classical approximability questions with parameterized complexity, we introduce a theory of parameterized approximability. The main intention of this theory is ...

Efficient and Effective Practical Algorithms for the Set-Covering Problem
- The set-covering problem is an interesting problem in computational complexity theory. In [1], the setcovering problem has been proved to be NP hard and a greedy heuristic algori...
