Multi Purpose Routing: New Perspectives and Approximation Algorithms

Majid Farhadi, Jai Moondra, Prasad Tetali +1

The cost due to delay in services may be intrinsically different for various applications of vehicle routing such as medical emergencies, logistical operations, and ride-sharing. W…

The Traveling Firefighter Problem

Majid Farhadi, Alejandro Toriello, Prasad Tetali

We introduce the Traveling Salesman Problem (-TSP), given by an origin, a set of destinations, and underlying distances. The objective is to schedule a destination visit…

Bridging Classical and Quantum with SDP initialized warm-starts for QAOA

Reuben Tate, Majid Farhadi, Creston Herold +2

We study the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) in the context of the Max-Cut problem. Near-term (noisy) quantum devices are only able to (accurately) execute QAOA a…

Improved Approximations for Min Sum Vertex Cover and Generalized Min Sum Set Cover

Nikhil Bansal, Jatin Batra, Majid Farhadi +1

We study the generalized min sum set cover (GMSSC) problem, wherein given a collection of hyperedges with arbitrary covering requirements , the goal is to find an ordering…

& Maximum Variance Embedding: Measuring and Optimizing Connectivity of A Graph Metric

Majid Farhadi, Anand Louis, Mohit Singh +1

Bobkov, Houdré, and the last author [2000] introduced a Poincaré-type functional parameter, , of a graph and related it to connectivity of the graph via Cheeger-type ineq…

A Gelfand-Naimark type theorem

M. Farhadi, M. R. Koushesh

Let be a completely regular space. For a non-vanishing self-adjoint Banach subalgebra of which has local units we construct the spectrum of …
