Amplified Hardness of Approximation for VCG-Based Mechanisms
If a two-player social welfare maximization problem does not admit a PTAS, we prove that any maximal-in-range truthful mechanism that runs in polynomial time cannot achieve an app...

Convex approximation techniques for joint multiuser downlink beamforming and admission control
Multiuser downlink beamforming under quality of service (QoS) constraints has attracted considerable interest in recent years, because it is particularly appealing from a network o...

Approximating Minimum-Power k-Connectivity
Abstract. The Minimum-Power k-Connected Subgraph (MPkCS) problem seeks a power (range) assignment to the nodes of a given wireless network such that the resulting communication (su...

Faster Approximation of Distances in Graphs
Let G = (V, E) be an weighted undirected graph on n vertices and m edges, and let dG be its shortest path metric. We present two simple deterministic algorithms for approximating ...

Approximating Optimal Binary Decision Trees
Abstract. We give a (ln n + 1)-approximation for the decision tree (DT) problem. An instance of DT is a set of m binary tests T = (T1, . . . , Tm) and a set of n items X = (X1, . ....
