Approximating node connectivity problems via set covers
Given a graph (directed or undirected) with costs on the edges, and an integer k, we consider the problem of nding a k-node connected spanning subgraph of minimum cost. For the ge...

Near-optimal algorithms for unique games
Unique games are constraint satisfaction problems that can be viewed as a generalization of Max-Cut to a larger domain size. The Unique Games Conjecture states that it is hard to ...

Maximizing the Number of Independent Labels in the Plane
In this paper, we consider a map labeling problem to maximize the number of independent labels in the plane. We first investigate the point labeling model that each label can be ...
