An Improved Approximation Bound for Spanning Star Forest and Color Saving
We present a simple algorithm for the maximum spanning star forest problem. We take advantage of the fact that the problem is a special case of complementary set cover and we adapt...

Approximation Complexity of min-max (Regret) Versions of Shortest Path, Spanning Tree, and Knapsack
This paper investigates, for the first time in the literature, the approximation of min-max (regret) versions of classical problems like shortest path, minimum spanning tree, and ...

Secret Sharing Schemes With General Access Structure Based On MSPs
— In this paper we introduce two operations of access structure to build large monotone span programs MSPs from small MSPs. Furthermore, we point out a new method of constructing...

Quantum Query Complexity of Some Graph Problems
Quantum algorithms for graph problems are considered, both in the adjacency matrix model and in an adjacency list-like array model. We give almost tight lower and upper bounds for ...

A Functional Approach to External Graph Algorithms
We present a new approach for designing external graph algorithms and use it to design simple, deterministic and randomized external algorithms for computing connected components, ...
