Tight Approximability Results for Test Set Problems in Bioinformatics
In this paper, we investigate the test set problem and its variations that appear in a variety of applications. In general, we are given a universe of objects to be “distinguish...

A Tight Analysis of the Maximal Matching Heuristic
We study the worst-case performance of the maximal matching heuristic applied to the Minimum Vertex Cover and Minimum Maximal Matching problems, through a careful analysis of tigh...

Surviving Rates of Graphs with Bounded Treewidth for the Firefighter Problem
The firefighter problem is the following discrete-time game on a graph. Initially, a fire starts at a vertex of the graph. In each round, a firefighter protects one vertex not yet ...

Parity Problems in Planar Graphs
We consider the problem of counting the number of spanning trees in planar graphs. We prove tight bounds on the complexity of the problem, both in general and especially in the mo...

Bounded Size Graph Clustering with Applications to Stream Processing
We introduce a graph clustering problem motivated by a stream processing application. Input to our problem is an undirected graph with vertex and edge weights. A cluster is a subse...
