An Improved Approximation Bound for Spanning Star Forest and Color Saving
We present a simple algorithm for the maximum spanning star forest problem. We take advantage of the fact that the problem is a special case of complementary set cover and we adapt...

A Unified Method for Improving PRF Bounds for a Class of Blockcipher Based MACs
This paper provides a unified framework for improving PRF (pseudorandom function) advantages of several popular MACs (message authentication codes) based on a blockcipher modeled a...

Improved Bounds on the Average Distance to the Fermat-Weber Center of a Convex Object
We show that for any convex object Q in the plane, the average distance between the Fermat-Weber center of Q and the points in Q is at least 4(Q)/25, and at most 2(Q)/(3 3), wher...

Improved Throughput Bounds for Interference-Aware Routing in Wireless Networks
We propose new algorithms and improved bounds for interference-aware routing in wireless networks. First, we prove that n arbitrarily matched source-destinations pairs with average...

Improved Approximations of Independent Sets in Bounded-Degree Graphs
Abstract. Finding maximum independent sets in graphs with bounded maximum degree is a well-studied NP-complete problem. We introduce an algorithm schema for improving the approxim...
