How to rank with few errors
We present a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the minimum feedback arc set problem on tournaments. A simple weighted generalization gives a PTAS for KemenyYoung ran...

A subset spanner for Planar graphs, : with application to subset TSP
Let > 0 be a constant. For any edge-weighted planar graph G and a subset S of nodes of G, there is a subgraph H of G of weight a constant times that of the minimum Steiner tree...

Programmable clustering
We initiate a novel study of clustering problems. Rather than specifying an explicit objective function to optimize, our framework allows the user of clustering algorithm to speci...

A general result for deriving product-form solutions in markovian models
In this paper we provide a general method to derive productform solutions for stochastic models. We take inspiration from the Reversed Compound Agent Theorem [14] and we provide a...

Evolutionary algorithms and dynamic programming
Recently, it has been proven that evolutionary algorithms produce good results for a wide range of combinatorial optimization problems. Some of the considered problems are tackled...
