Approximating Precedence-Constrained Single Machine Scheduling by Coloring
Abstract. This paper investigates the relationship between the dimension theory of partial orders and the problem of scheduling precedenceconstrained jobs on a single machine to mi...

Random Walks on Colored Graphs
This thesis introduces a model of a random walk on a colored undirected graph. Such a graph has a single vertex set and   distinct sets of edges, each of which has a color. A par...

New approaches to covering and packing problems
Covering and packing integer programs model a large family of combinatorial optimization problems. The current-best approximation algorithms for these are an instance of the basic...

Constant-Factor Approximation for Minimum-Weight (Connected) Dominating Sets in Unit Disk Graphs
For a given graph with weighted vertices, the goal of the minimum-weight dominating set problem is to compute a vertex subset of smallest weight such that each vertex of the graph...

Locally computable approximations for spectral clustering and absorption times of random walks
We address the problem of determining a natural local neighbourhood or "cluster" associated to a given seed vertex in an undirected graph. We formulate the task in terms...
