Approximating the two-level facility location problem via a quasi-greedy approach
We propose a quasi-greedy algorithm for approximating the classical uncapacitated 2-level facility location problem (2-LFLP). Our algorithm, unlike the standard greedy algorithm, ...

Approximation Algorithms for Multi-Criteria Traveling Salesman Problems
In multi-criteria optimization, several objective functions are to be optimized. Since the different objective functions are usually in conflict with each other, one cannot conside...

Approximation Algorithms for Disjoint Paths and Related Routing and Packing Problems
Given a network and a set of connection requests on it, we consider the maximum edge-disjoint paths and related generalizations and routing problems that arise in assigning paths f...

Approximation algorithm for minimal convergecast time problem in wireless sensor networks
In this paper we consider how to collect data from sensors deployed in the Euclidean plane in a timeefficient way. We assume that all sensors could adjust their transmission range...

Symmetry and Approximability of Submodular Maximization Problems
Abstract— A number of recent results on optimization problems involving submodular functions have made use of the ”multilinear relaxation” of the problem [3], [8], [24], [14]...
