Deterministic 7/8-Approximation for the Metric Maximum TSP
We present the first 7/8-approximation algorithm for the maximum traveling salesman problem with triangle inequality. Our algorithm is deterministic. This improves over both the r...

Approximation Algorithms for Submodular Multiway Partition
Abstract— We study algorithms for the SUBMODULAR MULTIWAY PARTITION problem (SUB-MP). An instance of SUB-MP consists of a finite ground set V , a subset S = {s1, s2, . . . , sk}...

Network Design via Core Detouring for Problems without a Core
Some of the currently best-known approximation algorithms for network design are based on random sampling. One of the key steps of such algorithms is connecting a set of source nod...
