Approximation Schemes for Node-Weighted Geometric Steiner Tree Problems
Abstract. In this paper we introduce a new technique for approximation schemes for geometrical optimization problems. As an example problem, we consider the following variant of th...

Approximation Resistant Predicates from Pairwise Independence
We study the approximability of predicates on k variables from a domain [q], and give a new sufficient condition for such predicates to be approximation resistant under the Unique...

Approximation schemes for Metric Bisection and partitioning
We design polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for Metric BISECTION, i.e. dividing a given finite metric space into two halves so as to minimize or maximize the sum of di...

Approximating Multi-Criteria Max-TSP
Abstract. We present randomized approximation algorithms for multicriteria Max-TSP. For Max-STSP with k > 1 objective functions, we obtain an approximation ratio of 1 k - for a...

Market equilibrium via the excess demand function
We consider the problem of computing market equilibria and show three results. (i) For exchange economies satisfying weak gross substitutability we analyze a simple discrete versi...
