We present a streaming algorithm for constructing sparse spanners and show that our algorithm out-performs significantly the state-of-the-art algorithm for this task [20]. Speci...
We find robust model-free hedges and price bounds for options on the realized variance of [the returns on] an underlying price process. Assuming only that the underlying process ...
In the MINIMUM BOUNDED DEGREE SPANNING TREE problem, we are given an undirected graph with a degree upper bound Bv on each vertex v, and the task is to find a spanning tree of min...
The coverage problem is of great interest for many sensor network applications, for example, detection of intruders in the sensor field. Topological changes in sensor networks ma...
We define and solve a simple extension of the ski-rental problem [4]. In the classical version, the algorithm needs to decide when to switch from renting to buying. In our version...
