A Faster, Better Approximation Algorithm for the Minimum Latency Problem
We give a 7.18-approximation algorithm for the minimum latency problem that uses only O(n log n) calls to the prize-collecting Steiner tree (PCST) subroutine of Goemans and Willia...

Deterministic Approximation Algorithms for the Nearest Codeword Problem
The Nearest Codeword Problem (NCP) is a basic algorithmic question in the theory of error-correcting codes. Given a point v ∈ Fn 2 and a linear space L ⊆ Fn 2 of dimension k NC...

Improved Approximation of MAX-CUT on Graphs of Bounded Degree
We analyze the addition of a simple local improvement step to various known randomized approximation algorithms. Let ' 0:87856 denote the best approximation ratio currently k...

Deterministic construction of an approximate M-ellipsoid and its applications to derandomizing lattice algorithms
We give a deterministic O(log n)n -time and space algorithm for the Shortest Vector Problem (SVP) of a lattice under any norm, improving on the previous best deterministic nO(n) -...
