Constant-Time Approximation Algorithms via Local Improvements
We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...

CSP gaps and reductions in the lasserre hierarchy
We study integrality gaps for SDP relaxations of constraint satisfaction problems, in the hierarchy of SDPs defined by Lasserre. Schoenebeck [25] recently showed the first integra...

On Complexity of Optimal Recombination for Binary Representations of Solutions
We consider an optimization problem of finding the best possible offspring as a result of a recombination operator in an evolutionary algorithm, given two parent solutions. The op...

Packing r-Cliques in Weighted Chordal Graphs
In Hell et al. (2004), we have previously observed that, in a chordal graph G, the maximum number of independent r-cliques (i.e., of vertex disjoint subgraphs of G, each isomorphic...

The Checkpoint Problem
In this paper, we consider the checkpoint problem in which given an undirected graph G, a set of sourcedestinations {(s1, t1), (s1, t1), . . . , (sk, tk)} and a set of fixed paths...
