Minimum sum vertex cover of an $n$-vertex graph $G$ is a bijection $\phi : V(G) \to [n]$ that minimizes the cost $\sum_{\{u,v\} \in E(G)} \min \{\phi(u), \phi(v) \}$. Finding a minimum sum vertex cover of a graph (the MSVC problem) is…

We give a deterministic O(log n)^n algorithm for the {\em Shortest Vector Problem (SVP)} of a lattice under {\em any} norm, improving on the previous best deterministic bound of n^O(n) for general norms and nearly matching the bound of…

In this article, we consider the Euclidean dispersion problems. Let $P=\{p_{1}, p_{2}, \ldots, p_{n}\}$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^2$. For each point $p \in P$ and $S \subseteq P$, we define $cost_{\gamma}(p,S)$ as the sum of…

Many problems are NP-hard and, unless P = NP, do not admit polynomial-time exact algorithms. The fastest known exact algorithms exactly usually take time exponential in the input size. Much research effort has gone into obtaining faster…

An $\alpha$-approximate polynomial Turing kernelization is a polynomial-time algorithm that computes an $(\alpha c)$-approximate solution for a parameterized optimization problem when given access to an oracle that can compute…

We prove a query complexity lower bound for $\mathsf{QMA}$ protocols that solve approximate counting: estimating the size of a set given a membership oracle. This gives rise to an oracle $A$ such that $\mathsf{SBP}^A \not\subset…

Let X = (x_0,...,x_{n-1})$ be a sequence of n numbers. For \epsilon > 0, we say that x_i is an \epsilon-approximate median if the number of elements strictly less than x_i, and the number of elements strictly greater than x_i are each less…
