Logarithmic hardness of the directed congestion minimization problem
We show that for any constant ε > 0, there is no Ω(log1−ε M)approximation algorithm for the directed congestion minimization problem on networks of size M unless NP ⊆ Z...

On Column-Restricted and Priority Covering Integer Programs
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...

Streaming Algorithms for extent problems in high dimensions
We develop (single-pass) streaming algorithms for maintaining extent measures of a stream S of n points in Rd . We focus on designing streaming algorithms whose working space is p...

A Threshold of ln n for Approximating Set Cover
Given a collection Ᏺ of subsets of S ϭ {1, . . . , n}, set cover is the problem of selecting as few as possible subsets from Ᏺ such that their union covers S, and max k-cover ...

Approximation Algorithms for 2-Stage Stochastic Optimization Problems
Abstract. Stochastic optimization is a leading approach to model optimization problems in which there is uncertainty in the input data, whether from measurement noise or an inabili...
