Optimal approximation of elliptic problems by linear and nonlinear mappings II
We study the optimal approximation of the solution of an operator equation A(u) = f by four types of mappings: a) linear mappings of rank n; b) n-term approximation with respect t...

Towards Optimal Range Medians
We consider the following problem: given an unsorted array of n elements, and a sequence of intervals in the array, compute the median in each of the subarrays defined by the inter...

Evolutionary Algorithms for Two Problems from the Calculus of Variations
Abstract. A brachistochrone is the path along which a weighted particle falls most quickly from one point to another, and a catenary is the smooth curve connecting two points whose...

Thresholded Covering Algorithms for Robust and Max-min Optimization
The general problem of robust optimization is this: one of several possible scenarios will appear tomorrow, but things are more expensive tomorrow than they are today. What should...
