Suppose we are given a finite set of points P in R3 and a collection of polytopes T that are all translates of the same polytope T. We consider two problems in this paper. The firs...
In a column-restricted covering integer program (CCIP), all the non-zero entries of any column of the constraint matrix are equal. Such programs capture capacitated versions of cov...
The definitions of four previously studied parameters related to total coverings and total matchings of graphs can be restricted, thereby obtaining eight parameters related to cov...
Various problems in AI and multiagent systems can be tackled by finding the “most desirable” elements of a set given some binary relation. Examples can be found in areas as d...
Important variants of the Vertex Cover problem (among others, Connected Vertex Cover, Capacitated Vertex Cover, and Maximum Partial Vertex Cover) have been intensively studied in ...
