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...

Connections between Theta-Graphs, Delaunay Triangulations, and Orthogonal Surfaces
Θk-graphs are geometric graphs that appear in the context of graph navigation. The shortest-path metric of these graphs is known to approximate the Euclidean complete graph up to...

Local algorithms in (weakly) coloured graphs
A local algorithm is a distributed algorithm that completes after a constant number of synchronous communication rounds. We present local approximation algorithms for the minimum ...

A faster implementation of the Goemans-Williamson clustering algorithm
We give an implementation of the Goemans-Williamson clustering procedure which is at the core of several approximation algorithms including those for Generalized Steiner Trees, Pr...

Maintaining a Large Matching or a Small Vertex Cover
We consider the problem of maintaining a large matching or a small vertex cover in a dynamically changing graph. Each update to the graph is either an edge deletion or an edge ins...
