Approximation Algorithms for Cost-Robust Discrete Minimization Problems Based on Their LP-Relaxations

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

We consider robust discrete minimization problems where uncertainty is defined by a convex set in the objective. Assuming the existence of an integrality gap verifier with a bounded approximation guarantee for the LP relaxation of the non-robust version of the problem, we derive approximation algorithms for the robust version under different types of uncertainty, including polyhedral and ellipsoidal uncertainty.
