Expander flows, geometric embeddings and graph partitioning
We give a O( log n)-approximation algorithm for sparsest cut, edge expansion, balanced separator, and graph conductance problems. This improves the O(log n)-approximation of Leig...

Fixed points in digital topology (via Helly posets)
Abstract. We extend some of our previous results on fixed points of graph multifunctions to posets. The posets of most interest here are the (finite) Khalimsky spaces, in their spe...

Constant-Time Approximation Algorithms via Local Improvements
We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...

Competitive Online Routing in Geometric Graphs
We consider online routing algorithms for finding paths between the vertices of plane graphs. Although it has been shown in Bose et al. [4] that there exists no competitive routin...

Approximate k-MSTs and k-Steiner Trees via the Primal-Dual Method and Lagrangean Relaxation
Garg [10] gives two approximation algorithms for the minimum-cost tree spanning k vertices in an undirected graph. Recently Jain and Vazirani [16] discovered primal-dual approxima...
