Bidimensional Parameters and Local Treewidth
For several graph-theoretic parameters such as vertex cover and dominating set, it is known that if their sizes are bounded by k then the treewidth of the graph is bounded by some ...

Integrality gaps for Sherali-Adams relaxations
We prove strong lower bounds on integrality gaps of Sherali?Adams relaxations for MAX CUT, Vertex Cover, Sparsest Cut and other problems. Our constructions show gaps for Sherali?A...

Resilient Routing for Sensor Networks Using Hyperbolic Embedding of Universal Covering Space
—We study how to characterize the families of paths between any two nodes s, t in a sensor network with holes. Two paths that can be deformed to one another through local changes...
