Approximate bivariate factorization: a geometric viewpoint
We briefly present and analyze, from a geometric viewpoint, strategies for designing algorithms to factor bivariate approximate polynomials in   [x, y]. Given a composite polyno...

Approximation Algorithms for the Maximum Induced Planar and Outerplanar Subgraph Problems
The task of finding the largest subset of vertices of a graph that induces a planar subgraph is known as the Maximum Induced Planar Subgraph problem (MIPS). In this paper, some n...

Deterministic Sparse Fourier Approximation via Fooling Arithmetic Progressions
A significant Fourier transform (SFT) algorithm, given a threshold and oracle access to a function f, outputs (the frequencies and approximate values of) all the -significant Fou...
