Abstract: Schnorr's algorithm for finding an approximation for the shortest nonzero vector in an n-dimensional lattice depends on a parameter k. He proved that for a fixed k ...
One of the major difficulties when applying Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithms (MOEA) to real world problems is the large number of objective function evaluations. Approximate...

We continue the recent line of work on the connection between semidefinite programming-based approximation algorithms and the Unique Games Conjecture. Given any boolean 2-CSP (or...
This paper continues the investigation of the connection between probabilistically checkable proofs (PCPs) and the approximability of NP-optimization problems. The emphasis is on p...
Consider the following problem: given a metric space, some of whose points are "clients," select a set of at most k facility locations to minimize the average distance f...
