Truthful and Near-Optimal Mechanism Design via Linear Programming
We give a general technique to obtain approximation mechanisms that are truthful in expectation. We show that for packing domains, any α-approximation algorithm that also bounds ...

Optimal 3-terminal cuts and linear programming
Given an undirected graph G = (V;E) and three speci ed terminal nodes t1;t2;t3, a 3-cut is a subset A of E such that no two terminals are in the same component of GnA. If a non-neg...

Multiresolution Approximation of Polygonal Curves in Linear Complexity
: We propose a new algorithm to the problem of polygonal curve approximation based on a multiresolution approach. This algorithm is suboptimal but still maintains some optimality b...

Approximation Algorithms for 2-Stage Stochastic Optimization Problems
Abstract. Stochastic optimization is a leading approach to model optimization problems in which there is uncertainty in the input data, whether from measurement noise or an inabili...
