Exponential algorithms, i.e. algorithms of complexity O(cn ) for some c > 1, seem to be unavoidable in the case of NP-complete problems (unless P=NP), especially if the problem ...
Abstract Abstract. Recent work in the analysis of randomized approximation algorithms for NP-hard optimization problems has involved approximating the solution to a problem by the ...
Abstract. We develop for set cover games several general cost-sharing methods that are approximately budget-balanced, core, and/or group-strategyproof. We first study the cost sha...
An infinite binary sequence X is Kolmogorov-Loveland (or KL) random if there is no computable non-monotonic betting strategy that succeeds on X in the sense of having an unbounde...
In 2000 Alber et al. [SWAT 2000 ] obtained the first parameterized subexponential algorithm on undirected planar graphs by showing that k-DOMINATING SET is solvable in time 2O( ...
