The Odd Cycle Transversal problem (OCT) asks whether a given graph can be made bipartite by deleting at most k of its vertices. In a breakthrough result Reed, Smith, and Vetta (Op...
In this paper, we study the average case complexity of the Unique Games problem. We propose a natural semi-random model, in which a unique game instance is generated in several st...

Abstract. Classical network flow theory allows decomposition of flow into several chunks of arbitrary sizes traveling through the network on different paths. In the first part ...
Rosetta is one of the leading algorithms for protein structure prediction today. It is a Monte Carlo energy minimization method requiring many random restarts to find structures ...

We focus on data gathering problems in energy constrained networked sensor systems. The system operates in rounds where a subset of the sensors generate a certain number of data p...
