Approximability of Minimum AND-Circuits
Given a set of monomials, the Minimum AND-Circuit problem asks for a circuit that computes these monomials using AND-gates of fan-in two and being of minimum size. We prove that t...

Bin Packing in Multiple Dimensions: Inapproximability Results and Approximation Schemes
We study the multidimensional generalization of the classical Bin Packing problem: Given a collection of d-dimensional rectangles of specified sizes, the goal is to pack them into ...

Fast Algorithms for Constant Approximation k-Means Clustering
In this paper we study the k-means clustering problem. It is well-known that the general version of this problem is NP-hard. Numerous approximation algorithms have been proposed fo...

Approximation Algorithms for Buy-at-Bulk Geometric Network Design
Abstract. The buy-at-bulk network design problem has been extensively studied in the general graph model. In this paper we consider the geometric version of the problem, where all ...
