Greedy Algorithms for Minimisation Problems in Random Regular Graphs
In this paper we introduce a general strategy for approximating the solution to minimisation problems in random regular graphs. We describe how the approach can be applied to the m...

Partitioning a weighted partial order
The problem of partitioning a partially ordered set into a minimum number of chains is a well-known problem. In this paper we study a generalization of this problem, where we not ...

On the importance of idempotence
Range searching is among the most fundamental problems in computational geometry. An n-element point set in Rd is given along with an assignment of weights to these points from so...

The average-case complexity of counting distinct elements
We continue the study of approximating the number of distinct elements in a data stream of length n to within a (1? ) factor. It is known that if the stream may consist of arbitra...

Approximating Spanning Trees with Inner Nodes Cost
We consider the practical NP-complete problem of finding a minimum weight spanning tree with both edge weights and inner nodes weights. We present two polynomial time algorithms ...
