Two-Tiered Constrained Relay Node Placement in Wireless Sensor Networks: Efficient Approximations
In a wireless sensor network, short range multihop transmissions are preferred to prolong the network lifetime due to super-linear nature of energy consumption with communication d...

Balanced max 2-sat might not be the hardest
We show that, assuming the Unique Games Conjecture, it is NPhard to approximate MAX 2-SAT within LLZ + , where 0.9401 < LLZ < 0.9402 is the believed approximation ratio of t...

On the Approximability of Maximum and Minimum Edge Clique Partition Problems
We consider the following clustering problems: given a general undirected graph, partition its vertices into disjoint clusters such that each cluster forms a clique and the number...

First order LUB approximations: characterization and algorithms
One of the major approaches to approximation of logical theories is the upper and lower bounds approach introduced in (Selman and Kautz, 1991, 1996). In this paper, we address the...
