On Euclidean Embeddings and Bandwidth Minimization
We study Euclidean embeddings of Euclidean metrics and present the following four results: (1) an O(log3 n √ log log n) approximation for minimum bandwidth in conjunction with a ...

Hardness of Max-2Lin and Max-3Lin over Integers, Reals, and Large Cyclic Groups
—In 1997, H˚astad showed NP-hardness of (1 − , 1/q + δ)-approximating Max-3Lin(Zq); however it was not until 2007 that Guruswami and Raghavendra were able to show NP-hardness...

On the Hardness of Welfare Maximization in Combinatorial Auctions with Submodular Valuations
We present a new type of monotone submodular functions: multi-peak submodular functions. Roughly speaking, given a family of sets F, we construct a monotone submodular function f ...

Covering Problems with Hard Capacities
We consider the classical vertex cover and set cover problems with the addition of hard capacity constraints. This means that a set (vertex) can only cover a limited number of its...

Doing Good with Spam Is Hard
We study economic means to improve network performance in the well-known game theoretic traffic model due to Wardrop. We introduce two sorts of spam flow - auxiliary and adversari...
