Paths, Trees, and Minimum Latency Tours
We give improved approximation algorithms for a variety of latency minimization problems. In particular, we give a 3.591 -approximation to the minimum latency problem, improving o...

Packing triangles in low degree graphs and indifference graphs
We consider the problems of finding the maximum number of vertex-disjoint triangles (VTP) and edge-disjoint triangles (ETP) in a simple graph. Both problems are NP-hard. The algor...

Dense open-shop schedules with release times
We study open-shop scheduling problems with job release times. The objective is to minimize the makespan. Dense schedules, easy to construct, are often used as approximate solutio...
