Inapproximability for planar embedding problems
We consider the problem of computing a minimumdistortion bijection between two point-sets in R2 . We prove the first non-trivial inapproximability result for this problem, for the...

Resource Minimization for Fire Containment
We consider the following model for fire containment. We are given an undirected graph G = (V, E) with a source vertex s where the fire starts. At each time step, the firefighters...

Faster exponential time algorithms for the shortest vector problem
We present new faster algorithms for the exact solution of the shortest vector problem in arbitrary lattices. Our main result shows that the shortest vector in any n-dimensional l...

One-Counter Markov Decision Processes
We study the computational complexity of some central analysis problems for One-Counter Markov Decision Processes (OC-MDPs), a class of finitely-presented, countable-state MDPs. O...
