On the Approximability of the Steiner Tree Problem
We show that it is not possible to approximate the minimum Steiner tree problem within 1 + 1 162 unless RP = NP. The currently best known lower bound is 1 + 1 400. The reduction i...

A factor 1/2 approximation algorithm for two-stage stochastic matching problems
We introduce the two-stage stochastic maximum-weight matching problem and demonstrate that this problem is NP-complete. We give a factor 1 2 approximation algorithm and prove its ...

Approximation Algorithms for Single-minded Envy-free Profit-maximization Problems with Limited Supply
We present the first polynomial-time approximation algorithms for single-minded envy-free profit-maximization problems [13] with limited supply. Our algorithms return a pricing sc...

An approximate solution method based on tabu search for k-minimum spanning tree problems
—This paper considers k-minimum spanning tree problems. An existing solution algorithm based on tabu search, which was proposed by Katagiri et al., includes an iterative solving ...
