The Power of Priority Algorithms for Facility Location and Set Cover
We apply and extend the priority algorithm framework introduced by Borodin, Nielsen, and Rackoff to define "greedy-like" algorithms for the (uncapacitated) facility locat...

Algorithms for two-box covering
We study the problem of covering a set of points or polyhedra in 3 with two axis-aligned boxes in order to minimize a function of the measures of the two boxes, such as the sum or...

Mixed-Integer Vertex Covers on Bipartite Graphs
Let A be the edge-node incidence matrix of a bipartite graph G = (U, V ; E), I be a subset the nodes of G, and b be a vector such that 2b is integral. We consider the following mi...
