Edge-disjoint paths in Planar graphs with constant congestion
We study the maximum edge-disjoint paths problem in undirected planar graphs: given a graph G and node pairs s1t1, s2t2, . . ., sktk, the goal is to maximize the number of pairs t...

Near-optimal algorithms for unique games
Unique games are constraint satisfaction problems that can be viewed as a generalization of Max-Cut to a larger domain size. The Unique Games Conjecture states that it is hard to ...
