Large independent sets in regular graphs of large girth
Let G be a d-regular graph with girth g, and let α be the independence number of G. We show that α(G) ≥ 1 2 1 − (d − 1)−2/(d−2) − (g) n where (g) → 0 as g → ∞,...

A Robust PTAS for Maximum Weight Independent Sets in Unit Disk Graphs
A unit disk graph is the intersection graph of unit disks in the euclidean plane. We present a polynomial-time approximation scheme for the maximum weight independent set problem i...

Approximating minimum independent dominating sets in wireless networks
We present the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Minimum Independent Dominating Set problem in graphs of polynomially bounded growth. Graphs of bounded gr...

Approximating Independent Set in Semi-Random Graphs
We present an algorithm for the independent set problem on semi-random graphs, which are generated as follows: An adversary chooses an n-vertex graph, and then each edge is flipp...
