Hardness of Directed Routing with Congestion
Given a graph G and a collection of source-sink pairs in G, what is the least integer c such that each source can be connected by a path to its sink, with at most c paths going th...

A Stab at Approximating Minimum Subadditive Join
Let (L, ∗) be a semilattice, and let c : L → [0, ∞) be monotone and increasing on L. We state the Minimum Join problem as: given size n sub-collection X of L and integer k w...

Hardness of routing with congestion in directed graphs
Given as input a directed graph on N vertices and a set of source-destination pairs, we study the problem of routing the maximum possible number of source-destination pairs on pat...

Beating the Random Ordering is Hard: Inapproximability of Maximum Acyclic Subgraph
We prove that approximating the Max Acyclic Subgraph problem within a factor better than 1/2 is Unique-Games hard. Specifically, for every constant ε > 0 the following holds:...

Efficiently clustering transactional data with weighted coverage density
In this paper, we propose a fast, memory-efficient, and scalable clustering algorithm for analyzing transactional data. Our approach has three unique features. First, we use the c...
