We study semidefinite programming relaxations of Vertex Cover arising from repeated applications of the LS+ “lift-and-project” method of Lovasz and Schrijver starting from th...
Abstract. For solving combinatorial optimisation problems, exact methods accurately exploit the structure of the problem but are tractable only up to a certain size; approximation ...
Given a set of m identical bins of size 1, the online input consists of a (potentially, infinite) stream of items in (0, 1]. Each item is to be assigned to a bin upon arrival. The ...
The application of resource-defined fitness sharing (RFS) to shape nesting problems reveals a remarkable ability to discover tilings [7, 8]. These tilings represent exact covers...
We initiate the study of the computational complexity of the covering radius problem for point lattices, and approximation versions of the problem for both lattices and linear cod...
