Optimal randomized algorithms for multipacket and cut through routing on the mesh
In this paper, we present a randomized algorithm for the multipacket (i.e., k − k) routing problem on an n × n mesh. The algorithm completes with high probability in at the mos...

Optimal Inapproximability Results for Max-Cut and Other 2-Variable CSPs?
In this paper we show a reduction from the Unique Games problem to the problem of approximating MAX-CUT to within a factor of GW + , for all > 0; here GW .878567 denotes the a...
