Approximating Directed Weighted-Degree Constrained Networks
Given a graph H = (V, F) with edge weights {w(e) : e F}, the weighted degree of a node v in H is {w(vu) : vu F}. We give bicriteria approximation algorithms for problems that see...

On the Degree Sequences of Random Outerplanar and Series-Parallel Graphs
In order to perform an average-case analysis for specific input distributions one needs to derive and understand properties of a 'typical' input instance. In the case of...

Approximating Maximum Subgraphs without Short Cycles
We study approximation algorithms, integrality gaps, and hardness of approximation, of two problems related to cycles of "small" length k in a given graph. The instance f...

The Complexity of Distinguishing Markov Random Fields
Abstract. Markov random fields are often used to model high dimensional distributions in a number of applied areas. A number of recent papers have studied the problem of reconstruc...

Streaming Algorithms for k-Center Clustering with Outliers and with Anonymity
Clustering is a common problem in the analysis of large data sets. Streaming algorithms, which make a single pass over the data set using small working memory and produce a cluster...

Corruption and Recovery-Efficient Locally Decodable Codes
A (q, , )-locally decodable code (LDC) C : {0, 1}n {0, 1}m is an encoding from n-bit strings to m-bit strings such that each bit xk can be recovered with probability at least 1 2 +...

Inapproximability of Survivable Networks
In the Survivable Network Design Problem (SNDP) one seeks to find a minimum cost subgraph that satisfies prescribed node-connectivity requirements. We give a novel approximation r...
