Improved Approximation Algorithms for Bipartite Correlation Clustering
In this work we study the problem of Bipartite Correlation Clustering (BCC), a natural bipartite counterpart of the well studied Correlation Clustering (CC) problem. Given a bipart...

Improved Approximation of MAX-CUT on Graphs of Bounded Degree
We analyze the addition of a simple local improvement step to various known randomized approximation algorithms. Let ' 0:87856 denote the best approximation ratio currently k...

A Constant-Factor Approximation Algorithm for the k-Median Problem
We present the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for the metric k-median problem. The k-median problem is one of the most well-studied clustering problems, i.e., those...

Improved Steiner tree approximation in graphs
The Steiner tree problem in weighted graphs seeks a minimum weight connected subgraph containing a given subset of the vertices terminals. We present a new polynomial-time heurist...

Sharp Separation and Applications to Exact and Parameterized Algorithms
Many divide-and-conquer algorithms employ the fact that the vertex set of a graph of bounded treewidth can be separated in two roughly balanced subsets by removing a small subset o...
