Differentially Private Approximation Algorithms
Consider the following problem: given a metric space, some of whose points are "clients," select a set of at most k facility locations to minimize the average distance f...

Multi-coloring Trees
Scheduling jobs with pairwise conflicts is modeled by the graph multicoloring problem. It occurs in two versions: in the preemptive case, each vertex may get any set of colors, w...

On the Crossing Spanning Tree Problem
Given an undirected n-node graph and a set C of m cuts, the minimum crossing tree is a spanning tree which minimizes the maximum crossing of any cut in C, where the crossing of a c...

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...

On Bounded Queries and Approximation
This paper investigates the computational complexity of approximating several NPoptimization problems using the number of queries to an NP oracle as a complexity measure. The resu...
