Approximations for minimum and min-max vehicle routing problems
: We consider a variety of vehicle routing problems. The input to a problem consists of a graph G = (N, E) and edge lengths l(e) e E. Customers located at the vertices have to be ...

The Set Cover with Pairs Problem
Abstract. We consider a generalization of the set cover problem, in which elements are covered by pairs of objects, and we are required to find a minimum cost subset of objects th...

Constant-Time Approximation Algorithms via Local Improvements
We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...

Strategyproof cost-sharing mechanisms for set cover and facility location games
Strategyproof cost-sharing mechanisms, lying in the core, that recover 1/a fraction of the cost, are presented for the set cover and facility location games: a=O(log n) for the fo...

A Unified Approach to Approximating Partial Covering Problems
An instance of the generalized partial cover problem consists of a ground set U and a family of subsets S 2U . Each element e U is associated with a profit p(e), whereas each su...
