Finding effectors in social networks
Assume a network (V, E) where a subset of the nodes in V are active. We consider the problem of selecting a set of k active nodes that best explain the observed activation state, ...

The Minimum Generalized Vertex Cover Problem
Let G = (V, E) be an undirected graph, with three numbers d0(e) ≥ d1(e) ≥ d2(e) ≥ 0 for each edge e ∈ E. A solution is a subset U ⊆ V and di(e) represents the cost contr...

Online and stochastic survivable network design
Consider the edge-connectivity survivable network design problem: given a graph G = (V, E) with edge-costs, and edgeconnectivity requirements rij Z0 for every pair of vertices i,...

When LP is the Cure for Your Matching Woes: Improved Bounds for Stochastic Matchings
Abstract Consider a random graph model where each possible edge e is present independently with some probability pe. Given these probabilities, we want to build a large/heavy match...

A combinatorial, primal-dual approach to semidefinite programs
Semidefinite programs (SDP) have been used in many recent approximation algorithms. We develop a general primal-dual approach to solve SDPs using a generalization of the well-know...
