Fractional Biclique Covers and Partitions of Graphs
A biclique is a complete bipartite subgraph of a graph. This paper investigates the fractional biclique cover number, bc(G), and the fractional biclique partition number, bp(G), o...

Projecting an Extended Formulation for Mixed-Integer Covers on Bipartite Graphs
We consider the mixed integer version of bipartite vertex cover. This is equivalent to the mixed integer network dual model, recently introduced in [2], that generalizes several m...

Constant-Time Approximation Algorithms via Local Improvements
We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...
