Absolute polynomial factorization in two variables and the knapsack problem
A recent algorithmic procedure for computing the absolute factorization of a polynomial P(X, Y ), after a linear change of coordinates, is via a factorization modulo X3 . This was...

Approximating the Best-Fit Tree Under Lp Norms
Abstract. We consider the problem of fitting an n × n distance matrix M by a tree metric T. We give a factor O(min{n1/p , (k log n)1/p }) approximation algorithm for finding the...

Approximate clustering via core-sets
In this paper, we show that for several clustering problems one can extract a small set of points, so that using those core-sets enable us to perform approximate clustering effici...

Algorithms for Finding Distance-Edge-Colorings of Graphs
For a bounded integer , we wish to color all edges of a graph G so that any two edges within distance have different colors. Such a coloring is called a distance-edge-coloring or ...
