The bandwidth of an n-vertex graph G is the minimum value b such that the vertices of G can be mapped to distinct integer points on a line without any edge being stretched to a di...
: In this paper, inspired by the work of Megiddo on the formation of preferences and strategic analysis, we consider an early market model studied in the field of economic theory, ...
We prove that various geometric covering problems, related to the Travelling Salesman Problem cannot be efficiently approximated to within any constant factor unless P = NP. This ...
— Loss networks provide a powerful tool for the analysis and design of many communication and networking systems. It is well known that a large number of loss networks have produ...
We establish several approximate max-integral-flow / minmulticut theorems. While in general this ratio can be very large, we prove strong approximation ratios in the case where th...
