Improving the Efficiency of Helsgaun's Lin-Kernighan Heuristic for the Symmetric TSP
Abstract. Helsgaun has introduced and implemented the lower tolerances (-values) for an approximation of Held-Karp's 1-tree with the purpose to improve the Lin-Kernighan Heuri...

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...
