The Demand-Matching Problem
The objective of the demand matching problem is to obtain the subset M of edges which is feasible and where the sum of the profits of each of the edges is maximized. The set M is...

On sums of independent random variables with unbounded variance, and estimating the average degree in a graph
We prove the following inequality: for every positive integer n and every collection X1, . . . , Xn of nonnegative independent random variables that each has expectation 1, the pr...

Approximate min-max theorems for Steiner rooted-orientations of graphs and hypergraphs
Given an undirected hypergraph and a subset of vertices S V with a specified root vertex r S, the STEINER ROOTED-ORIENTATION problem is to find an orientation of all the hypered...

"Almost Stable" Matchings in the Roommates Problem
An instance of the classical Stable Roommates problem (sr) need not admit a stable matching. This motivates the problem of finding a matching that is “as stable as possible”, ...

A Faster, Better Approximation Algorithm for the Minimum Latency Problem
We give a 7.18-approximation algorithm for the minimum latency problem that uses only O(n log n) calls to the prize-collecting Steiner tree (PCST) subroutine of Goemans and Willia...
