Approximate Nearest Neighbor Queries in Fixed Dimensions
Given a set of n points in d-dimensional Euclidean space, S ⊂ Ed , and a query point q ∈ Ed , we wish to determine the nearest neighbor of q, that is, the point of S whose Euc...

Buy-at-Bulk Network Design with Protection
We consider approximation algorithms for buy-at-bulk network design, with the additional constraint that demand pairs be protected against edge or node failures in the network. In...

Separation and Approximation of Polyhedral Objects
Given a family of disjoint polygons P1, P2, : : :, Pk in the plane, and an integer parameter m, it is NP-complete to decide if the Pi's can be pairwise separated by a polygon...

On the Complexity of Learning Lexicographic Strategies
Fast and frugal heuristics are well studied models of bounded rationality. Psychological research has proposed the take-the-best heuristic as a successful strategy in decision mak...

Quorum placement in networks to minimize access delays
A quorum system is a family of sets (themselves called quorums), each pair of which intersect. In many distributed algorithms, the basic unit accessed by a client is a quorum of n...
