Consistent Approximations and Approximate Functions and Gradients in Optimal Control
As shown in [7], optimal control problems with either ODE or PDE dynamics can be solved efficiently using a setting of consistent approximations obtained by numerical discretizati...

On the approximability of influence in social networks
In this paper, we study the spread of influence through a social network, in a model initially studied by Kempe, Kleinberg and Tardos [14, 15]: We are given a graph modeling a soc...

Computing the Closest Point to a Circle
In this paper we consider the problem of computing the closest point to the boundary of a circle among a set S of n points. We present two algorithms to solve this problem. One al...

New Algorithms for Approximate Nash Equilibria in Bimatrix Games
Abstract. We consider the problem of computing additively approximate Nash equilibria in non-cooperative two-player games. We provide a new polynomial time algorithm that achieves ...

Fast Algorithms for Constant Approximation k-Means Clustering
In this paper we study the k-means clustering problem. It is well-known that the general version of this problem is NP-hard. Numerous approximation algorithms have been proposed fo...
