Near-Tight Approximation Algorithms for Bottleneck Multiple Knapsack Problems

Lin Chen, Tingwei Hu, Yuchen Mao +5

In the bottleneck multiple knapsack problem, we are given a set of items and a set of knapsacks, where each item has a profit and a weight, and each knapsack has a capacity. Our go…

A Nearly Quadratic-Time FPTAS for Knapsack

Lin Chen, Jiayi Lian, Yuchen Mao +1

We investigate the classic Knapsack problem and propose a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) that runs in time. This improves…

Faster Algorithms for Bounded Knapsack and Bounded Subset Sum Via Fine-Grained Proximity Results

Lin Chen, Jiayi Lian, Yuchen Mao +1

We investigate pseudopolynomial-time algorithms for Bounded Knapsack and Bounded Subset Sum. Recent years have seen a growing interest in settling their fine-grained complexity wit…

Improved Approximation Schemes for (Un-)Bounded Subset-Sum and Partition

Xiaoyu Wu, Lin Chen

We consider the SUBSET SUM problem and its important variants in this paper. In the SUBSET SUM problem, a (multi-)set of positive numbers and a target number are given,…

Approximation Algorithms for Interdiction Problem with Packing Constraints

Lin Chen, Xiaoyu Wu, Guochuan Zhang

We study a bilevel optimization problem which is a zero-sum Stackelberg game. In this problem, there are two players, a leader and a follower, who pick items from a common set. Bot…

FPT Algorithms for a Special Block-structured Integer Program with Applications in Scheduling

Hua Chen, Lin Chen, Guochuan Zhang

We consider integer programs whose constraint matrix has a special block structure: , where the objective function $…
