Approximation Schemes for Metric Minimum Bisection and Partitioning
W. Fernandez de la Vega, Marek Karpinski and Claire Kenyon [Download PostScript] [Download PDF] We design polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for Metric MIN-BISECTION, i.e. dividing a given {finite metric} space into two halves so as to minimize the sum of distances across the cut. The method extends to partitioning problems with arbitrary size constraints. Our approximation schemes depend on a hybrid placement method and on a new application of linearized quadratic programs. |
