Approximation Algorithms for Partial Covering Problems
We study the generalization of covering problems to partial covering. Here we wish to cover only a desired number of elements, rather than covering all elements as in standard cov...

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...

On time versus size for monotone dynamic monopolies in regular topologies
: We consider a well known distributed coloring game played on a simple connected graph: initially, each vertex is colored black or white; at each round, each vertex simultaneously...

Bidimensionality and Kernels
Bidimensionality theory appears to be a powerful framework in the development of meta-algorithmic techniques. It was introduced by Demaine et al. [J. ACM 2005 ] as a tool to obtai...

Coordinatized Kernels and Catalytic Reductions: An Improved FPT Algorithm for Max Leaf Spanning Tree and Other Problems
Abstract. We describe some new, simple and apparently general methods for designing FPT algorithms, and illustrate how these can be used to obtain a signi cantly improved FPT algor...
