Polynomial Time Approximation Schemes for Metric MIN-BISECTION (Extended Version)
W. Fernandez de la Vega, Marek Karpinski, Claire Kenyon [Download PostScript] [Download PDF] We design the first polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for the problem of Metric MIN-BISECTION of dividing a given finite metric space into two halves so as to minimize the sum of distances across that partition.Our approximation schemes depend on a novel hybrid metric placement method and a new application of linearized quadratic programs. |
