Constant-Factor Approximation for Minimum-Weight (Connected) Dominating Sets in Unit Disk Graphs
For a given graph with weighted vertices, the goal of the minimum-weight dominating set problem is to compute a vertex subset of smallest weight such that each vertex of the graph...

Algorithms for two-box covering
We study the problem of covering a set of points or polyhedra in 3 with two axis-aligned boxes in order to minimize a function of the measures of the two boxes, such as the sum or...

Online Maintenance of k-Medians and k-Covers on a Line
The standard dynamic programming solution to finding k-medians on a line with n nodes requires O(kn2 ) time. Dynamic programming speedup techniques, e.g., use of the quadrangle i...

A Sample-based Convex Cover for Rapidly Finding an Object in a 3-D Environment
— In this paper we address the problem of generating a motion strategy to find an object in a known 3-D environment as quickly as possible on average. We use a sampling scheme t...

Mixed-Integer Vertex Covers on Bipartite Graphs
Let A be the edge-node incidence matrix of a bipartite graph G = (U, V ; E), I be a subset the nodes of G, and b be a vector such that 2b is integral. We consider the following mi...
