Improved Steiner tree approximation in graphs
The Steiner tree problem in weighted graphs seeks a minimum weight connected subgraph containing a given subset of the vertices terminals. We present a new polynomial-time heurist...

Detecting approximate symmetries of discrete point subsets
Detecting approximate symmetries of parts of a model is important when attempting to determine the geometric design intent of approximate boundary-representation (B-rep) solid mod...

Deterministic Truthful Approximation Mechanisms for Scheduling Related Machines
Abstract. We consider the problem of scheduling jobs on related machines owned by selfish agents and provide the first deterministic mechanisms with constant approximation that a...

Approximation and Hardness Results for Label Cut and Related Problems
We investigate a natural combinatorial optimization problem called the Label Cut problem. Given an input graph G with a source s and a sink t, the edges of G are classified into ...

Randomized Approximation of the Stable Marriage Problem
Abstract. While the original stable marriage problem requires all participants to rank all members of the opposite sex in a strict order, two natural variations are to allow for in...
