Minimizing the Diameter of a Network Using Shortcut Edges
We study the problem of minimizing the diameter of a graph by adding k shortcut edges, for speeding up communication in an existing network design. We develop constant-factor appro...

Minimizing Average Shortest Path Distances via Shortcut Edge Addition
We consider adding k shortcut edges (i.e. edges of small fixed length δ ≥ 0) to a graph so as to minimize the weighted average shortest path distance over all pairs of vertices...

Finding the best shortcut in a geometric network
Given a Euclidean graph G in Rd with n vertices and m edges we consider the problem of adding a shortcut such that the stretch factor of the resulting graph is minimized. Currentl...

Correlation Clustering Revisited: The "True" Cost of Error Minimization Problems
Correlation Clustering was defined by Bansal, Blum, and Chawla as the problem of clustering a set of elements based on a possibly inconsistent binary similarity function between e...

On Approximation of Bookmark Assignments
Consider a rooted directed acyclic graph G = (V, E) with root r, representing a collection V of web pages connected via a set E of hyperlinks. Each node v is associated with the pr...
