Differentially Private Approximation Algorithms
Consider the following problem: given a metric space, some of whose points are "clients," select a set of at most k facility locations to minimize the average distance f...

A Tight Analysis of the Maximal Matching Heuristic
We study the worst-case performance of the maximal matching heuristic applied to the Minimum Vertex Cover and Minimum Maximal Matching problems, through a careful analysis of tigh...

Finding a maximum likelihood tree is hard
Abstract. Maximum likelihood (ML) is an increasingly popular optimality criterion for selecting evolutionary trees [Felsenstein 1981]. Finding optimal ML trees appears to be a very...

Power Domination Problem in Graphs
To monitor an electric power system by placing as few phase measurement units (PMUs) as possible is closely related to the famous vertex cover problem and domination problem in gr...

Approximating the Maximum Sharing Problem
In the maximum sharing problem (MS), we want to compute a set of (non-simple) paths in an undirected bipartite graph covering as many nodes as possible of the first layer of the ...
