An Improved Approximation Scheme for Computing Arrow-Debreu Prices for the Linear Case
Recently, Jain, Mahdian and Saberi [5] had given a FPTAS for the problem of computing a market equilibrium in the Arrow-Debreu setting, when the utilities are linear functions. The...

Approximation Schemes for Scheduling
We discuss scheduling problems with m identical machines and n jobs where each job has to be assigned to some machine. The goal is to optimize objective functions that solely depe...

Faster approximation schemes for fractional multicommodity flow problems via dynamic graph algorithms
We combine the work of Garg and K¨onemann, and Fleischer with ideas from dynamic graph algorithms to obtain faster (1 − ε)-approximation schemes for various versions of the mu...

The Complexity of Polynomial-Time Approximation
In 1996, Khanna and Motwani [KM96] proposed three logic-based optimization problems constrained by planar structure, and offered the hypothesis that these putatively fundamental ...

An Approximation Scheme for Terrain Guarding
We obtain a polynomial time approximation scheme for the terrain guarding problem improving upon several recent constant factor approximations. Our algorithm is a local search algo...
