An Approximation Algorithm for Binary Searching in Trees
We consider the problem of computing efficient strategies for searching in trees. As a generalization of the classical binary search for ordered lists, suppose one wishes to find...

Improved approximation algorithms for rectangle tiling and packing
We provide improved approximation algorithms for several rectangle tiling and packing problems (RTILE, DRTILE and d-RPACK) studied in the literature. Our algorithms are highly eff...

Primal-dual algorithms for deterministic inventory problems
We consider several classical models in deterministic inventory theory: the single-item lot-sizing problem, the joint replenishment problem, and the multi-stage assembly problem. ...

Approximation Algorithms for Non-Uniform Buy-at-Bulk Network Design
We consider approximation algorithms for non-uniform buy-at-bulk network design problems. The first nontrivial approximation algorithm for this problem is due to Charikar and Kar...

New Algorithms for Approximate Nash Equilibria in Bimatrix Games
Abstract. We consider the problem of computing additively approximate Nash equilibria in non-cooperative two-player games. We provide a new polynomial time algorithm that achieves ...
