We demonstrate an average-case problem that is as hard as finding (n)-approximate shortest vectors in certain n-dimensional lattices in the worst case, where (n) = O( log n). The...
We prove that approximating the Max Acyclic Subgraph problem within a factor better than 1/2 is Unique-Games hard. Specifically, for every constant ε > 0 the following holds:...
We consider the problem of removing a given disk from a collection of unit disks in the plane. At each step, we allow a disk to be removed by a collision-free translation to infin...
This paper considers the problem of performing decentralised coordination of low-power embedded devices (as is required within many environmental sensing and surveillance applicat...

Bidimensionality theory appears to be a powerful framework for the development of metaalgorithmic techniques. It was introduced by Demaine et al. [J. ACM 2005 ] as a tool to obtai...
