Chebyshev approximation of the null function by an affine combination of complex exponential functions
We describe the theoretical solution of an approximation problem that uses a finite weighted sum of complex exponential functions. The problem arises in an optimization model for t...

Complexity and Approximation of the Minimum Recombination Haplotype Configuration Problem
We study the complexity and approximation of the problem of reconstructing haplotypes from genotypes on pedigrees under the Mendelian Law of Inheritance and the minimum recombinant...

Weighted Coloring on Planar, Bipartite and Split Graphs: Complexity and Improved Approximation
We study complexity and approximation of min weighted node coloring in planar, bipartite and split graphs. We show that this problem is NP-complete in planar graphs, even if they a...

The Space Complexity of Approximating the Frequency Moments
The frequency moments of a sequence containing mi elements of type i, for 1 i n, are the numbers Fk = n i=1 mk i . We consider the space complexity of randomized algorithms that...

Multiresolution Approximation of Polygonal Curves in Linear Complexity
: We propose a new algorithm to the problem of polygonal curve approximation based on a multiresolution approach. This algorithm is suboptimal but still maintains some optimality b...
