Polynomial bounds for the grid-minor theorem
Chandra Chekuri,Julia Chuzhoy +1 more
TL;DR: The first polynomial relationship between treewidth and grid-minor size is obtained by showing that f(k) = Ω(kδ) for some fixed constant δ > 0, and an algorithm is described that finds a model of such a grid-Minor in G.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Maximum independent set of rectangles
TL;DR: The main result of this paper is an O(log log n)-approximation algorithm for MISR, which combines existing approaches for solving special cases of the problem, in which the input set of rectangles is restricted to containing specific intersection types, with new insights into the combinatorial structure of sets of intersecting rectangles in the plane.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
On Allocating Goods to Maximize Fairness
TL;DR: An algorithm that achieves a \tilde{O}(n^{\eps})-approximation in time n^{O(1/\eps)} for any \eps=\Omega(log log n/log n) and a poly-logarithmic approximation in quasi-polynomial time.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Covering problems with hard capacities
TL;DR: This paper considers the classical vertex cover and set cover problems with the addition of hard capacity constraints and gives a 3-approximation algorithm which is based on randomized rounding with alterations and proves that the weighted version is at least as hard as the set cover problem.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Approximation algorithms for the job interval selection problem and related scheduling problems
Julia Chuzhoy,Rafail Ostrovsky +1 more
TL;DR: The authors consider the job interval selection problem (JISP), a simple scheduling model with a rich history and numerous applications, and shows an approximation guarantee of less than 1.582 for arbitrary instances of JISP.
