Connected Vertex Covers in Dense Graphs
We consider the variant of the minimum vertex cover problem in which we require that the cover induces a connected subgraph. We give new approximation results for this problem in d...

A General Approximation Technique for Constrained Forest Problems
We present a general approximation technique for a large class of graph problems. Our technique mostly applies to problems of covering, at minimum cost, the vertices of a graph wit...

Approximating the minimum directed tree cover
Given a directed graph G with non negative cost on the arcs, a directed tree cover of G is a directed tree such that either head or tail (or both of them) of every arc in G is touc...

Local Maximal Matching and Local 2-Approximation for Vertex Cover in UDGs
We present 1 − approximation algorithms for the maximum matching problem in location aware unit disc graphs and in growth-bounded graphs. The algorithm for unit disk graph is loc...

Minimum-Weight Cycle Covers and Their Approximability
A cycle cover of a graph is a set of cycles such that every vertex is part of exactly one cycle. An L-cycle cover is a cycle cover in which the length of every cycle is in the set ...
