Quadratic minimisation problems in statistics
We consider the problem minx(x−t) A(x−t) subject to x Bx + 2b x = k where A is positive definite or positive semidefinite. Commonly occurring statistical variants of this pro...

Approximation Algorithms for Multicommodity-Type Problems with Guarantees Independent of the Graph Size
— Linial, London and Rabinovich [16] and Aumann and Rabani [3] proved that the min-cut max-flow ratio for general maximum concurrent flow problems (when there are k commodities...

Finding at Least One Point in Each Connected Component of a Real Algebraic Set Defined by a Single Equation
Deciding efficiently the emptiness of a real algebraic set defined by a single equation is a fundamental problem of computational real algebraic geometry. We propose an algorithm ...
