Given a graph H = (V, F) with edge weights {w(e) : e F}, the weighted degree of a node v in H is {w(vu) : vu F}. We give bicriteria approximation algorithms for problems that see...
We study a generalization of the classical secretary problem which we call the “matroid secretary problem”. In this problem, the elements of a matroid are presented to an onli...

Using an improved backtrack algorithm with sophisticated pruning techniques, we revise previous observations correlating a high frequency of hard to solve Hamiltonian cycle instan...
: We initiate the study of local, sublinear time algorithms for finding vertices with extreme topological properties -- such as high degree or clustering coefficient -- in large so...
Abstract. This paper deals with approximations of maximum independent sets in non-uniform hypergraphs of low degree. We obtain the first performance ratio that is sublinear in term...
