We empirically analyze a simple heuristic for large sparse set cover problems. It uses the weighted greedy algorithm as a basic building block. By multiplicative updates of the weights attached to the elements, the greedy solution is…

It was previously known that the almost greedy (AG) property essentially remains the same when we enlarge greedy sums in the classical definition by a factor $\lambda \geqslant 1$. The present paper shows that if instead, we enlarge greedy…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $(e_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ be a basis. For a function $f$ in a large collection $\mathcal{F}$ (closed under composition), we define and characterize $f$-greedy and $f$-almost greedy bases. We study relations among…

Albiac and Wojtaszczyk introduced property (A) to characterize $1$-greedy bases. Later, Dilworth et al. generalized the concept to $C$-property (A), where the case $C = 1$ gives property (A). They (among other results) characterized greedy…
