On the Algorithmic Complexity of Twelve Covering and Independence Parameters of Graphs
The definitions of four previously studied parameters related to total coverings and total matchings of graphs can be restricted, thereby obtaining eight parameters related to cov...

Connected Vertex Covers in Dense Graphs
We consider the variant of the minimum vertex cover problem in which we require that the cover induces a connected subgraph. We give new approximation results for this problem in d...

Variable-Size Rectangle Covering
Abstract. In wireless communication networks, optimal use of the directional antenna is very important. The directional antenna coverage (DAC) problem is to cover all clients with ...

Multi-guard covers for polygonal regions
We study the problem of finding optimal covers of polygonal regions using multiple mobile guards. By our definition, a point is covered if, at some time, it lies within the convex...

On the Inapproximability of Vertex Cover on k-Partite k-Uniform Hypergraphs
Computing a minimum vertex cover in graphs and hypergraphs is a well-studied optimizaton problem. While intractable in general, it is well known that on bipartite graphs, vertex c...
