Near-optimal algorithms for unique games
Unique games are constraint satisfaction problems that can be viewed as a generalization of Max-Cut to a larger domain size. The Unique Games Conjecture states that it is hard to ...

Reasoning about Optimal Collections of Solutions
The problem of finding a collection of solutions to a combinatorial problem that is optimal in terms of an inter-solution objective function exists in many application settings. F...

Simultaneous optimization for concave costs: single sink aggregation or single source buy-at-bulk
We consider the problem of finding efficient trees to send information from k sources to a single sink in a network where information can be aggregated at intermediate nodes in t...
