On the average case performance of some greedy approximation algorithms for the uncapacitated facility location problem
In combinatorial optimization, a popular approach to NP-hard problems is the design of approximation algorithms. These algorithms typically run in polynomial time and are guarante...

Regularity Lemmas and Combinatorial Algorithms
— We present new combinatorial algorithms for Boolean matrix multiplication (BMM) and preprocessing a graph to answer independent set queries. We give the first asymptotic impro...

Linear Time Algorithms for Clustering Problems in Any Dimensions
Abstract. We generalize the k-means algorithm presented by the authors [14] and show that the resulting algorithm can solve a larger class of clustering problems that satisfy certa...

Experimental Studies of Symbolic Shortest-Path Algorithms
Abstract. Graphs can be represented symbolically by the Ordered Binary Decision Diagram (OBDD) of their characteristic function. To solve problems in such implicitly given graphs, ...
