We consider fundamental algorithmic number theoretic problems and their relation to a class of block structured Integer Linear Programs (ILPs) called 2-stage stochastic. A 2-stage stochastic ILP is an integer program of the form min{c(T)x vertical bar Ax = ...
In the restricted Santa Claus problem we are given resources R and players P. Every resource j is an element of R. has a value v(j) and every player i is an element of P desires a set of resources R(i). We are interested in distributing the resources to pl ...
