Approximability of Combinatorial Problems with Multi-agent Submodular Cost Functions
Abstract— Applications in complex systems such as the Internet have spawned recent interest in studying situations involving multiple agents with their individual cost or utility...

Approximate Structural Matching over Ordered XML Documents
There is an increasing need for an XML query engine that not only searches for exact matches to a query but also returns “query-like” structures. We have designed and develope...

The Directed Minimum-Degree Spanning Tree Problem
Consider a directed graph G = (V, E) with n vertices and a root vertex r ∈ V . The DMDST problem for G is one of constructing a spanning tree rooted at r, whose maximal degree is...

Balanced Randomized Tree Splitting with Applications to Evolutionary Tree Constructions
We present a new technique called balanced randomized tree splitting. It is useful in constructing unknown trees recursively. By applying it we obtain two new results on efficient ...

General approximation schemes for min-max (regret) versions of some (pseudo-)polynomial problems
While the complexity of min-max and min-max regret versions of most classical combinatorial optimization problems has been thoroughly investigated, there are very few studies abou...
