Approximation schemes for minimum 2-edge-connected and biconnected subgraphs in planar graphs
Given an undirected graph, finding either a minimum 2-edge-connected spanning subgraph or a minimum 2vertex-connected (biconnected) spanning subgraph is MaxSNP-hard. We show that ...

Weighted Geometric Set Cover via Quasi-Uniform Sampling
There has been much progress on geometric set cover problems, but most known techniques only apply to the unweighted setting. For the weighted setting, very few results are known ...

On the Construction of a Maximum-Lifetime Data Gathering Tree in Sensor Networks: NP-Completeness and Approximation Algorithm
Abstract—Energy efficiency is critical for wireless sensor networks. The data gathering process must be carefully designed to conserve energy and extend the network lifetime. Fo...

Constrained k-center and movement to independence
We obtain hardness results and approximation algorithms for two related geometric problems involving movement. The first is a constrained variant of the k-center problem, arising ...

Approximation schemes for clustering problems
We present a general approach for designing approximation algorithms for a fundamental class of geometric clustering problems in arbitrary dimensions. More specifically, our appro...
