Domination in Graphs of Minimum Degree at least Two and Large Girth
We prove that for graphs of order n, minimum degree 2 and girth g 5 the domination number satisfies 1 3 + 2 3g n. As a corollary this implies that for cubic graphs of order n ...

Improved Approximation for the Directed Spanner Problem
We present an O( √ n log n)-approximation algorithm for the problem of finding the sparsest spanner of a given directed graph G on n vertices. A spanner of a graph is a sparse ...

Local Algorithms for Approximate Inference in Minor-Excluded Graphs
We present a new local approximation algorithm for computing MAP and logpartition function for arbitrary exponential family distribution represented by a finite-valued pair-wise ...

Improved Bounds for Facility Location Games with Fair Cost Allocation
Abstract. We study Facility Location games played by n agents situated on the nodes of a graph. Each agent orders installation of a facility at a node of the graph and pays connect...

Local Graph Partitions for Approximation and Testing
—We introduce a new tool for approximation and testing algorithms called partitioning oracles. We develop methods for constructing them for any class of bounded-degree graphs wit...
