In this paper we consider the Steiner multicut problem. This is a generalization of the minimum multicut problem where instead of separating node pairs, the goal is to find a minimum weight set of edges that separates all given sets of nodes. A set is considered separated if it is not contained in a

We give the first non-trivial approximation algorithms for the Steiner tree problem and the generalized Steiner network problem on general directed graphs. These problems have several applications in network design and multicast routing.
We study the efficiency of greedy type algorithms with regard to redundant dictionaries in Hilbert space and we prove a general result which gives a sufficient condition on a dictionary to guarantee that the pure greedy algorithm is near best in the sense of power decay of error of approximation. We
An algorithm for calculating excitation energies and transition moments in the randomphase approximation (RPA) of the polarization propagator is presented. The algorithm includes direct solution of the RPA eigenvalue problem and direct evaluation of products of superoperator Hamiltonian matrices wit
We consider biorthogonal systems in quasi-Banach spaces such that the greedy algorithm converges for each x # X (quasi-greedy systems). We construct quasigreedy conditional bases in a wide range of Banach spaces. We also compare the greedy algorithm for the multidimensional Haar system with the opti
