Approximation Algorithms for Non-Uniform Buy-at-Bulk Network Design
We consider approximation algorithms for non-uniform buy-at-bulk network design problems. The first nontrivial approximation algorithm for this problem is due to Charikar and Kar...

LP Rounding Approximation Algorithms for Stochastic Network Design
Real-world networks often need to be designed under uncertainty, with only partial information and predictions of demand available at the outset of the design process. The field ...

Anarchy, Stability, and Utopia: Creating Better Matchings
We consider the loss in social welfare caused by individual rationality in matching scenarios. We give both theoretical and experimental results comparing stable matchings with soc...

Prize-Collecting Steiner Networks via Iterative Rounding
In this paper we design an iterative rounding approach for the classic prize-collecting Steiner forest problem and more generally the prize-collecting survivable Steiner network de...
