A new multilayered PCP and the hardness of hypergraph vertex cover
Given a k-uniform hypergraph, the Ek-Vertex-Cover problem is to find the smallest subset of vertices that intersects every hyperedge. We present a new multilayered PCP constructi...

A 5/3-Approximation for Finding Spanning Trees with Many Leaves in Cubic Graphs
For a connected graph G, let L(G) denote the maximum number of leaves in a spanning tree in G. The problem of computing L(G) is known to be NP-hard even for cubic graphs. We improv...

On-Line Approximate String Matching with Bounded Errors
We introduce a new dimension to the widely studied on-line approximate string matching problem, by introducing an error threshold parameter so that the algorithm is allowed to mis...

Approximating Optimal Multicast Trees in Wireless Multihop Networks
— We study the problem of computing minimal cost multicast trees in multi-hop wireless mesh networks. This problem is known as the Steiner tree problem, and it has been widely st...
