O(log2 k / log log k)-approximation algorithm for directed Steiner tree: a tight quasi-polynomial-time algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium on the Theory of Computing, 2018
In the Directed Steiner Tree (DST) problem we are given an n-vertex directed edge-weighted graph, a root r , and a collection of k terminal nodes. Our goal is to find a minimum-cost subgraph that contains a directed path from r to every terminal.

Polynomial-time Algorithm for Maximum Weight Independent Set on P6-free Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesACM Trans. Algorithms, 2017
In the classic Maximum Weight Independent Set problem, we are given a graph G with a nonnegative weight function on its vertices, and the goal is to find an independent set in G of maximum possible weight. While the problem is NP-hard in general, we give

Quasi-polynomial-time algorithm for Independent Set in Pt-free graphs via shrinking the space of induced paths

open access: yesSIAM Symposium on Simplicity in Algorithms, 2020
In a recent breakthrough work, Gartland and Lokshtanov [FOCS 2020] showed a quasi-polynomial-time algorithm for Maximum Weight Independent Set in $P_t$-free graphs, that is, graphs excluding a fixed path as an induced subgraph.

A Polynomial Time Algorithm for Lossy Population Recovery [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science, 2013
We give a polynomial time algorithm for the lossy population recovery problem. In this problem, the goal is to approximately learn an unknown distribution on binary strings of length n from lossy samples: for some parameter μ each coordinate of the ...

Approximate cycles count in undirected graphs [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems, 2014
In social networks, counting the number of different cycle sizes can be used to measure the entropy of the network that represents its robustness. The exact algorithms to compute cycles in a graph can generate exact results but they are not guaranteed to

Analysis of Polynomial Time and Non-Polynomial Time of Algorithms

open access: yesInternational Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology, 2023
Abstract: The P vs NP problem is one of the most significant open problems in computer science and mathematics. This problem asks whether every problem that can be solved in polynomial time can also be verified in polynomial time. The purpose of this research paper is to explore the P vs NP problem and its relevance in the analysis of algorithms.

A stable, polynomial-time algorithm for the eigenpair problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We describe algorithms for computing eigenpairs (eigenvalue--eigenvector) of a complex $n\times n$ matrix $A$. These algorithms are numerically stable, strongly accurate, and theoretically efficient (i.e., polynomial-time).

Efficient CSL Model Checking Using Stratification [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2012
For continuous-time Markov chains, the model-checking problem with respect to continuous-time stochastic logic (CSL) has been introduced and shown to be decidable by Aziz, Sanwal, Singhal and Brayton in 1996.

Polynomial-time algorithms for minimum energy scheduling [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Algorithms, 2007
The aim of power management policies is to reduce the amount of energy consumed by computer systems while maintaining a satisfactory level of performance. One common method for saving energy is to simply suspend the system during idle times. No energy is consumed in the suspend mode.
