We propose a new primal-dual algorithmic framework for a prototypical con- strained convex optimization template. The algorithmic instances of our frame- work are universal since they can automatically adapt to the unknown Ho ̈lder con- tinuity properties ...
We present a deterministic (1+root 5/2)-approximation algorithm for the s-t path TSP for an arbitrary metric. Given a symmetric metric cost on n vertices including two prespecified endpoints, the problem is to find a shortest Hamiltonian path between the t ...
The standard LP relaxation of the asymmetric traveling salesman problem has been conjectured to have a constant integrality gap in the metric case. We prove this conjecture when restricted to shortest path metrics of node-weighted digraphs. Our arguments a ...
We consider the Unconstrained Submodular Maximization problem in which we are given a nonnegative submodular function f : 2(N) -> R+, and the objective is to find a subset S subset of N maximizing f(S). This is one of the most basic submodular optimization ...
Multiview video refers to videos of the same dynamic 3-D scene captured simultaneously by multiple closely spaced cameras from different viewpoints. We study interactive streaming of pre-encoded multiview videos, where, at any time, a client can request an ...
We consider the capacitated k-center problem. In this problem we are given a finite set of locations in a metric space and each location has an associated non-negative integer capacity. The goal is to choose (open) k locations (called centers) and assign e ...
Linear programming has played a key role in the study of algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems. In the field of approximation algorithms, this is well illustrated by the uncapacitated facility location problem. A variety of algorithmic methodo ...
We study the maximum budgeted allocation problem, i.e., the problem of selling a set of m indivisible goods to n players, each with a separate budget, such that we maximize the collected revenue. Since the natural assignment LP is known to have an integral ...
The diffusion LMS algorithm has been extensively studied in recent years. This efficient strategy allows to address distributed optimization problems over networks in the case where nodes have to collaboratively estimate a single parameter vector. Neverthe ...

We consider the Node-weighted Steiner Forest problem on planar graphs. Demaine et al. showed that a generic primal-dual algorithm gives a 6-approximation. We present two different proofs of an approximation factor of~3. Then, we draw a connection to Goem ...
