On Dynamic Shortest Paths Problems
We obtain the following results related to dynamic versions of the shortest-paths problem: (i) Reductions that show that the incremental and decremental singlesource shortest-paths...

Primal-Dual RNC Approximation Algorithms for Set Cover and Covering Integer Programs
We build on the classical greedy sequential set cover algorithm, in the spirit of the primal-dual schema, to obtain simple parallel approximation algorithms for the set cover probl...

Random Bichromatic Matchings
Given a graph with edges colored Red and Blue, we wish to sample and approximately count the number of perfect matchings with exactly k Red edges. We study a Markov chain on the sp...

Geometric Applications of a Randomized Optimization Technique
Abstract. We propose a simple, general, randomized technique to reduce certain geometric optimization problems to their corresponding decision problems. These reductions increase t...
