A (1-1/e)-approximation algorithm for the generalized assignment problem
We give a (1 - 1/e)-approximation algorithm for the Max-Profit Generalized Assignment Problem (Max-GAP) with fixed profits when the profit (but not necessarily the size) of every ...

Approximation Algorithms for Non-single-minded Profit-Maximization Problems with Limited Supply
We consider profit-maximization problems for combinatorial auctions with non-single minded valuation functions and limited supply. We obtain fairly general results that relate the ...

A General Framework for Designing Approximation Schemes for Combinatorial Optimization Problems with Many Objectives Combined in
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a general framework for designing fully polynomial time approximation schemes for combinatorial optimization problems, in which more than one ob...

On Shortest Disjoint Paths in Planar Graphs
For a graph G and a collection of vertex pairs {(s1, t1), . . . , (sk, tk)}, the k disjoint paths problem is to find k vertex-disjoint paths P1, . . . , Pk, where Pi is a path fr...

A General Approximation Technique for Constrained Forest Problems
We present a general approximation technique for a large class of graph problems. Our technique mostly applies to problems of covering, at minimum cost, the vertices of a graph wit...
