We investigate various aspects of the "weighted" greedy algorithm with respect to a Schauder basis. For a weight w, we describe w-greedy, w-almost-greedy and w-partially-greedy bases, and show some properties of w-semi-greedy bases. To…

Greedy algorithms are a fundamental category of algorithms in mathematics and computer science, characterized by their iterative, locally optimal decision-making approach, which aims to find global optima. In this review, we will discuss…

Partially greedy bases in Banach spaces were introduced by Dilworth et al. as a strictly weaker notion than the (almost) greedy bases. In this paper, we study two natural ways to strengthen the definition of partial greediness. The first…

Let $0 < \theta \leqslant 1$. A sequence of positive integers $(b_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ is called a weak greedy approximation of $\theta$ if $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}1/b_n = \theta$. We introduce the weak greedy approximation algorithm (WGAA), which,…

For the classical maximum coverage problem, the greedy algorithm achieves a worst-case $1-1/e$ approximation, which is optimal unless $\text{P} = \text{NP}$. The notion of coverage appears in a wide range of optimization tasks, where…
