Approximate Shortest Distance Computing: A Query-Dependent Local Landmark Scheme
—Shortest distance query between two nodes is a fundamental operation in large-scale networks. Most existing methods in the literature take a landmark embedding approach, which s...

A Better Approximation Ratio for the Vertex Cover Problem
We reduce the approximation factor for Vertex Cover to 2 − Θ( 1√ log n ) (instead of the previous 2 − Θ(log log n log n ), obtained by Bar-Yehuda and Even [2], and by Moni...

Online and stochastic survivable network design
Consider the edge-connectivity survivable network design problem: given a graph G = (V, E) with edge-costs, and edgeconnectivity requirements rij Z0 for every pair of vertices i,...

Connections between Theta-Graphs, Delaunay Triangulations, and Orthogonal Surfaces
Θk-graphs are geometric graphs that appear in the context of graph navigation. The shortest-path metric of these graphs is known to approximate the Euclidean complete graph up to...

Sharp Separation and Applications to Exact and Parameterized Algorithms
Many divide-and-conquer algorithms employ the fact that the vertex set of a graph of bounded treewidth can be separated in two roughly balanced subsets by removing a small subset o...
