Overcoming Limitations of Sampling for Aggregation Queries
We study the problem of approximately answering aggregation queries using sampling. We observe that uniform sampling performs poorly when the distribution of the aggregated attrib...

3-hitting set on Bounded Degree Hypergraphs: Upper and Lower Bounds on the Kernel Size
We study upper and lower bounds on the kernel size for the 3-hitting set problem on hypergraphs of degree at most 3, denoted 33-hs. We first show that, unless P=NP, 3-3-hs on 3-un...

A Near Linear Time Approximation Scheme for Steiner Tree Among Obstacles in the Plane
We present a polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner tree problem with polygonal obstacles in the plane with running time O(n log2 n), where n denotes the numb...
