New Approximation Algorithms for Minimum Cycle Bases of Graphs
We consider the problem of computing an approximate minimum cycle basis of an undirected non-negative edge-weighted graph G with m edges and n vertices; the extension to directed ...

Ultrafast Randomized Parallel Construction and Approximation Algorithms for Spanning Forests in Dense Graphs
We present a rst randomized Ologk n time and On+m work CRCWPRAM algorithm for nding a spanning forest of an undirected dense graph with n vertices. Furthermore we construct a rando...

An Approximation Scheme for Terrain Guarding
We obtain a polynomial time approximation scheme for the terrain guarding problem improving upon several recent constant factor approximations. Our algorithm is a local search algo...

Approximate max-integral-flow/min-multicut theorems
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...

A simple local 3-approximation algorithm for vertex cover
We present a local algorithm (constant-time distributed algorithm) for finding a 3-approximate vertex cover in bounded-degree graphs. The algorithm is deterministic, and no auxili...
