How well can the maximum size of an independent set, or the minimum size of a dominating set of a graph in which all degrees are at most d be approximated by a randomized constant...
d Abstract) Sara Ahmadian∗ Chaitanya Swamy∗ We consider the lower-bounded facility location (LBFL) problem (also sometimes called load-balanced facility location), which is a ...
We consider the problem of minimizing a polynomial on the hypercube [0, 1]n and derive new error bounds for the hierarchy of semidefinite programming approximations to this problem...
Abstract. A well studied and difficult class of scheduling problems concerns parallel machines and precedence constraints. In order to model more realistic situations, we consider ...
We study simulation relations for Probabilistic Automata that require transitions to be matched up to negligible sets provided that computation lengths are polynomially bounded. T...
