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 ...

Finding Top-k Approximate Answers to Path Queries
We consider the problem of finding and ranking paths in semistructured data without necessarily knowing its full structure. The query language we adopt comprises conjunctions of r...

Approximation Schemes for Packing Splittable Items with Cardinality Constraints
We continue the study of bin packing with splittable items and cardinality constraints. In this problem, a set of items must be packed into as few bins as possible. Items may be s...

Approximating the minimum clique cover and other hard problems in subtree filament graphs
Subtree filament graphs are the intersection graphs of subtree filaments in a tree. This class of graphs contains subtree overlap graphs, interval filament graphs, chordal graphs,...

Approximating Fractional Multicommodity Flow Independent of the Number of Commodities
Abstract. We describe fully polynomial time approximation schemes for various multicommodity flow problems in graphs with m edges and n vertices. We present the first approximation...
