The time complexity of this algorithm is O (| E |log| E |), and its performance-ratio is . Second, we present an algorithm for covering undirected graphs, whose performance-ratio is . This algorithm uses a maximum weight matching algorithm as a subroutine, which dominates the overall ...
The method employs the idea of ellipsoid algorithm. In an ellipsoid algorithm solving a linear program or a convex program, the key step is to find a separation oracle in polynomial time. The separation oracle either tells that all constraints are satisfied or returns a violated constraint which ...
Vertex covering problemOptimizationApproximation algorithmThis paper is aimed to present the solution to vertex cover problem by means of an approximation solution. As it is NP complete problem, we can have an approximate time algorithm to solve the vertex cover problem. We will modify the algorithm...

Given a weight function w on the vertex set V, A 3ln n-approximation algorithm This section presents a one-stage greedy algorithm which is based on a potential function constructed as follows. For a vertex set C ⊆ V, denote by p(C) the number of connected components of G[C] and...
In addition to its simplicity, this algorithm has the advantage ofbeing parallelizable. For instances where each set has cardinality atmost three, we obtain an approximation of 4/3. We also presentbetter than 2-approximation algorithms for k-vertex cover on boundeddegree graphs, and for vertex ...

In this context, we consider reductions for set covering and vertex covering hierarchies. Our results are then extended to hitting set and independent set hierarchies. Here, we adopt the differential approximation ratio that has the natural property to be stable under affine transformations of the ...
For this problem, the greedy algorithm will always take the vertex with the highest degree (i.e., the one covering the largest number of edges), add it to the cover set, remove it from the graph, and repeat. We will refer to this algorithm as GreedyVertexCover. It is not too hard ...
