A Unifying Polyhedral Approximation Framework for Convex Optimization
Abstract. We propose a unifying framework for polyhedral approximation in convex optimization. It subsumes classical methods, such as cutting plane and simplicial decomposition, bu...

Hybridization and Postprocessing Techniques for Mixed Eigenfunctions
Abstract. We introduce hybridization and postprocessing techniques for the RaviartThomas approximation of second-order elliptic eigenvalue problems. Hybridization reduces the Ravia...

Approximating Weighted Max-SAT Problems by Compensating for Relaxations
We introduce a new approach to approximating weighted Max-SAT problems that is based on simplifying a given instance, and then tightening the approximation. First, we relax its str...

Small Clique Detection and Approximate Nash Equilibria
Recently, Hazan and Krauthgamer showed [12] that if, for a fixed small ε, an ε-best ε-approximate Nash equilibrium can be found in polynomial time in two-player games, then it ...

On the Performance of Approximate Equilibria in Congestion Games
We study the performance of approximate Nash equilibria for congestion games with polynomial latency functions. We consider how much the price of anarchy worsens and how much the ...
