Weighted Coloring on Planar, Bipartite and Split Graphs: Complexity and Improved Approximation
We study complexity and approximation of min weighted node coloring in planar, bipartite and split graphs. We show that this problem is NP-complete in planar graphs, even if they a...

Approximation schemes for minimum 2-edge-connected and biconnected subgraphs in planar graphs
Given an undirected graph, finding either a minimum 2-edge-connected spanning subgraph or a minimum 2vertex-connected (biconnected) spanning subgraph is MaxSNP-hard. We show that ...

Approximation Algorithms via Structural Results for Apex-Minor-Free Graphs
We develop new structural results for apex-minor-free graphs and show their power by developing two new approximation algorithms. The first is an additive approximation for colorin...

A Polynomial-Time Approximation Scheme for Weighted Planar Graph TSP
Given a planar graph on n nodes with costs weights on its edges, de ne the distance between nodes i and j as the length of the shortest path between i and j. Consider this as an i...

Simple Robotic Routing in Ad Hoc Networks
Position-based routing protocols in ad hoc networks combine a forwarding strategy with a recovery algorithm. The former fails when there are void regions or physical obstacles tha...
