Approximation Algorithms for the Minimum-Length Corridor and Related Problems
Given a rectangular boundary partitioned into rectangles, the MLC-R problem is to find a Minimum EdgeLength Corridor that visits at least one point from the boundary of every rec...

An approximation algorithm for network design problems with downwards-monotone demand functions
Building on an existing 2-approximate algorithm for the class of network design problems with downwards-monotone demand functions, many of which are NP-hard, we present an algorith...

Optimal Approximation of Elliptic Problems by Linear and Nonlinear Mappings
We study the optimal approximation of the solution of an operator equation A(u) = f by four types of mappings: a) linear mappings of rank n; b) n-term approximation with respect t...
