On optimizing over lift-and-project closures
The lift-and-project closure is the relaxation obtained by computing all lift-and-project cuts from the initial formulation of a mixed integer linear program or equivalently by co...

Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Path and Directed Latency Problems
We study integrality gaps and approximability of two closely related problems on directed graphs. Given a set V of n nodes in an underlying asymmetric metric and two specified nod...

Quality of LP-Based Approximations for Highly Combinatorial Problems
We study the quality of LP-based approximation methods for pure combinatorial problems. We found that the quality of the LPrelaxation is a direct function of the underlying constra...

LP Rounding Approximation Algorithms for Stochastic Network Design
Real-world networks often need to be designed under uncertainty, with only partial information and predictions of demand available at the outset of the design process. The field ...

On the Approximability of Budgeted Allocations and Improved Lower Bounds for Submodular Welfare Maximization and GAP
In this paper we consider the following maximum budgeted allocation (MBA) problem: Given a set of m indivisible items and n agents; each agent i willing to pay bij on item j and w...
