Mathematical programming approaches for generating p-efficient points
Abstract: Probabilistically constrained problems, in which the random variables are finitely distributed, are nonconvex in general and hard to solve. The p-efficiency concept has b...

Estimating arbitrary subset sums with few probes
Suppose we have a large table T of items i, each with a weight wi, e.g., people and their salary. In a general preprocessing step for estimating arbitrary subset sums, we assign e...

A Weakly Robust PTAS for Minimum Clique Partition in Unit Disk Graphs
We consider the problem of partitioning the set of vertices of a given unit disk graph (UDG) into a minimum number of cliques. The problem is NP-hard and various constant factor a...
