Improved Approximation for Guarding Simple Galleries from the Perimeter
We provide an O(log log OPT)-approximation algorithm for the problem of guarding a simple polygon with guards on the perimeter. We first design a polynomial-time algorithm for bui...

A Robust PTAS for Maximum Weight Independent Sets in Unit Disk Graphs
A unit disk graph is the intersection graph of unit disks in the euclidean plane. We present a polynomial-time approximation scheme for the maximum weight independent set problem i...

On Approximating an Implicit Cover Problem in Biology
Abstract. In an implicit combinatorial optimization problem, the constraints are not enumerated explicitly but rather stated implicitly through equations, other constraints or auxi...

Connected dominating sets on dynamic geometric graphs
We propose algorithms for efficiently maintaining a constant-approximate minimum connected dominating set (MCDS) of a geometric graph under node insertions and deletions. Assuming...
