The Polymatroid Steiner Problems
The Steiner tree problem asks for a minimum cost tree spanning a given set of terminals S ⊆ V in a weighted graph G = (V, E, c), c : E → R+ . In this paper we consider a genera...

Robust Shape Fitting via Peeling and Grating Coresets
Let P be a set of n points in Rd . A subset S of P is called a (k, )-kernel if for every direction, the direction width of S -approximates that of P, when k "outliers" c...

Minimum Dominating Set Approximation in Graphs of Bounded Arboricity
Abstract. Since in general it is NP-hard to solve the minimum dominating set problem even approximatively, a lot of work has been dedicated to central and distributed approximation...

Dynamic Constraint Weighting for Over-Constrained Problems
Many real-world constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) can be over-constrained but contain a set of mandatory or hard constraints that have to be satisfied for a solution to be ac...

Approximation algorithm for the kinetic robust K-center problem
Clustering is an important problem and has numerous applications. In this paper we consider an important clustering problem, called the k-center problem. We are given a discrete p...
