Tight Results on Minimum Entropy Set Cover
In the minimum entropy set cover problem, one is given a collection of k sets which collectively cover an n-element ground set. A feasible solution of the problem is a partition o...

On the Covering Steiner Problem
The Covering Steiner problem is a common generalization of the k-MST and Group Steiner problems. An instance of the Covering Steiner problem consists of an undirected graph with ed...

A General Approximation Technique for Constrained Forest Problems
We present a general approximation technique for a large class of graph problems. Our technique mostly applies to problems of covering, at minimum cost, the vertices of a graph wit...

Covering a Set of Points with a Minimum Number of Lines
We consider the minimum line covering problem: given a set S of n points in the plane, we want to find the smallest number l of straight lines needed to cover all n points in S. W...
