Hedging Uncertainty: Approximation Algorithms for Stochastic Optimization Problems
Abstract. We study two-stage, finite-scenario stochastic versions of several combinatorial optimization problems, and provide nearly tight approximation algorithms for them. Our pr...

Approximate k-MSTs and k-Steiner Trees via the Primal-Dual Method and Lagrangean Relaxation
Garg [10] gives two approximation algorithms for the minimum-cost tree spanning k vertices in an undirected graph. Recently Jain and Vazirani [16] discovered primal-dual approxima...
