Fixed-Parameter Approximation: Conceptual Framework and Approximability Results
The notion of fixed-parameter approximation is introduced to investigate the approximability of optimization problems within the framework of fixed-parameter computation. This work...

Constraint Logic: A Uniform Framework for Modeling Computation as Games
We introduce a simple game family, called Constraint Logic, where players reverse edges in a directed graph while satisfying vertex in-flow constraints. This game family can be in...

A General Framework for Bounds for Higher-Dimensional Orthogonal Packing Problems
Higher-dimensional orthogonal packing problems have a wide range of practical applications, including packing, cutting, and scheduling. In the context of a branch-and-bound framewo...

A general criterion and an algorithmic framework for learning in multi-agent systems
We offer a new formal criterion for agent-centric learning in multi-agent systems, that is, learning that maximizes one’s rewards in the presence of other agents who might also...
