A fast and efficient algorithm for low-rank approximation of a matrix
The low-rank matrix approximation problem involves finding of a rank k version of a m ? n matrix AAA, labeled AAAk, such that AAAk is as "close" as possible to the best ...

On the geometry of graphs with a forbidden minor
We study the topological simplification of graphs via random embeddings, leading ultimately to a reduction of the Gupta-Newman-Rabinovich-Sinclair (GNRS) L1 embedding conjecture t...

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...
