Balanced max 2-sat might not be the hardest
We show that, assuming the Unique Games Conjecture, it is NPhard to approximate MAX 2-SAT within LLZ + , where 0.9401 < LLZ < 0.9402 is the believed approximation ratio of t...

On distance to monotonicity and longest increasing subsequence of a data stream
In this paper we consider problems related to the sortedness of a data stream. First we investigate the problem of estimating the distance to monotonicity; given a sequence of len...

Hybrid rounding techniques for knapsack problems
We address the classical knapsack problem and a variant in which an upper bound is imposed on the number of items that can be selected. We show that appropriate combinations of ro...
