Degree Realization by Bipartite Cactus Graphs

Amotz Bar-Noy, Toni Bohnlein, David Peleg +2

The \textsc{Degree Realization} problem with respect to a graph family is defined as follows. The input is a sequence of positive integers, and the goal is to…

Approximate Realizations for Outerplanaric Degree Sequences

Amotz Bar-Noy, Toni Bohnlein, David Peleg +2

We study the question of whether a sequence d = (d_1,d_2, \ldots, d_n) of positive integers is the degree sequence of some outerplanar (a.k.a. 1-page book embeddable) graph G. If s…

A New Approximation Algorithm for Minimum-Weight --Connected Dominating Set

Jiao Zhou, Yingli Ran, Panos M. Pardalos +3

Consider a graph with nonnegative node weight. A vertex subset is called a CDS (connected dominating set) if every other node has at least one neighbor in the subset and the subset…

Approximation Algorithm for Minimum Union Under a Geometric Setting

Yingli Ran, Zhao Zhang

In a minimum union problem (MinU), given a hypergraph and an integer , the goal is to find a set of hyperedges such that the number of verti…

A parallel algorithm for minimum weight set cover with small neighborhood property

Yingli Ran, Yaoyao Zhang, Zhao Zhang

This paper studies the minimum weight set cover (MinWSC) problem with a {\em small neighborhood cover} (SNC) property proposed by Agarwal {\it et al.} in \cite{Agarwal.}. A paralle…

Performance Guaranteed Evolutionary Algorithm for Minimum Connected Dominating Set

Chaojie Zhu, Yingli Ran, Zhao Zhang +1

A connected dominating set is a widely adopted model for the virtual backbone of a wireless sensor network. In this paper, we design an evolutionary algorithm for the minimum conne…

Approximation Algorithm for the Partial Set Multi-Cover Problem

Yishuo Shi, Yingli Ran, Zhao Zhang +3

Partial set cover problem and set multi-cover problem are two generalizations of set cover problem. In this paper, we consider the partial set multi-cover problem which is a combin…
