Approximate Nullspace Iterations for KKT Systems
The aim of the paper is to provide a theoretical basis for approximate reduced SQP methods. In contrast to inexact reduced SQP methods, the forward and the adjoint problem accuraci...

Primal-dual algorithms for deterministic inventory problems
We consider several classical models in deterministic inventory theory: the single-item lot-sizing problem, the joint replenishment problem, and the multi-stage assembly problem. ...

A Simple Factor-2/3 Approximation Algorithm for Two-Circle Point Labeling
Given a set P of n points in the plane, the two-circle point-labeling problem consists of placing 2n uniform, non-intersecting, maximum-size open circles such that each point touc...

Approximating Semidefinite Packing Programs
In this paper we define semidefinite packing programs and describe an algorithm to approximately solve these problems. Semidefinite packing programs arise in many applications s...
