On the Hardness and Easiness of Random 4-SAT Formulas
Assuming 3-SAT formulas are hard to refute with high probability, Feige showed approximation hardness results, among others for the max bipartite clique. We extend this result in t...

Efficient Merging and Filtering Algorithms for Approximate String Searches
We study the following problem: how to efficiently find in a collection of strings those similar to a given query string? Various similarity functions can be used, such as edit dis...

Lattice Basis Reduction with Dynamic Approximation
Abstract. In this paper we present a heuristic based on dynamic approximations for improving the well-known Schnorr-Euchner lattice basis reduction algorithm. In particular, the ne...

Approximating Maximum Subgraphs without Short Cycles
We study approximation algorithms, integrality gaps, and hardness of approximation, of two problems related to cycles of "small" length k in a given graph. The instance f...
