This paper deals with approximation algorithms for the prize collecting generalized Steiner forest problem, defined as follows. The input is an undirected graph G = (V, E), a colle...
Abstract: Recently, there have been significant theoretical progresses towards fixed-parameter algorithms for the DOMINATING SET problem of planar graphs. It is known that the prob...
— The rapidly increasing complexity of tasks robotic systems are expected to carry out underscores the need for the development of motion planners that can take into account disc...
We introduce a new technique to solve exactly a discrete optimization problem, based on the paradigm of “negative” thinking. The motivation is that when searching the space of...

The study of extremal problems on triangle areas was initiated in a series of papers by Erdos and Purdy in the early 1970s. In this paper we present new results on such problems, ...
