A new perspective on implementation by voting trees
Voting trees describe an iterative procedure for selecting a single vertex from a tournament. vide a very general abstract model of decision-making among a group of individuals, a...

Approximating fractional hypertree width
Fractional hypertree width is a hypergraph measure similar to tree width and hypertree width. Its algorithmic importance comes from the fact that, as shown in previous work [14], ...

Generalization of Binary Search: Searching in Trees and Forest-Like Partial Orders
We extend the binary search technique to searching in trees. We consider two models of queries: questions about vertices and questions about edges. We present a general approach t...

QUIC-SVD: Fast SVD Using Cosine Trees
The Singular Value Decomposition is a key operation in many machine learning methods. Its computational cost, however, makes it unscalable and impractical for applications involvi...

Approximate max-integral-flow/min-multicut theorems
We establish several approximate max-integral-flow / minmulticut theorems. While in general this ratio can be very large, we prove strong approximation ratios in the case where th...
