In the uncapacitated facility location problem, given a graph, a set of demands and opening costs, it is required to find a set of facilities R, so as to minimize the sum of the c...
We present algorithms and heuristics to compute the characteristic polynomial of a matrix given its minimal polynomial. The matrix is represented as a black-box, i.e., by a functi...
Abstract. In 1965 Motzkin and Straus established a remarkable connection between the local/global maximizers of the Lagrangian of a graph G over the standard simplex ∆ and the ma...
We present an algorithm which calculates a minimum cut and its weight in an undirected graph with nonnegative real edge weights, n vertices and m edges, in time O( ` max (log n, mi...
We consider coverage problems in sensor networks of stationary nodes with minimal geometric data. In particular, there are no coordinates and no localization of nodes. We introduc...
