Garg [10] gives two approximation algorithms for the minimum-cost tree spanning k vertices in an undirected graph. Recently Jain and Vazirani [16] discovered primal-dual approxima...
A planning problem is k-dependent if each action has at most k pre-conditions on variables unaffected by the action. This concept is well-founded since k is a constant for all but...
Let S be a set of n points in a metric space, and k a positive integer. Algorithms are given that construct k-fault-tolerant spanners for S. If in such a spanner at most k vertice...

Let I be a random 3CNF formula generated by choosing a truth assignment for variables x1, . . . , xn uniformly at random and including every clause with i literals set true by w...
This paper deals with the maximum-weight 2-path packing problem (M2PP), which is the problem of computing a set of vertex-disjoint paths of length 2 in a given edge-weighted compl...
