We give an algorithm requiring O(c1/2 n) time to find an -optimal traveling salesman tour in the shortest-path metric defined by an undirected planar graph with nonnegative edgele...
One of the main goals in the analysis of microarray data is to identify groups of genes and groups of experimental conditions (including environments, individuals, and tissues) tha...
We show that a set is m-autoreducible if and only if it is m-mitotic. This solves a long standing open question in a surprising way. As a consequence of this unconditional result a...
We prove semi-logarithmic inapproximability for a maximization problem called unique coverage: given a collection of sets, find a subcollection that maximizes the number of elemen...
