A Novel Successive Approximation Method for Solving a Class of Optimal Control Problems
This paper presents a successive approximation method (SAM) for solving a large class of optimal control problems. The proposed analytical-approximate method, successively solves the Two-Point Boundary Value Problem (TPBVP), obtained from the Pontryagin's Maximum Principle (PMP). The convergence of this method is proved and a control design algorithm with low computational complexity is present...
متن کامل2.1 Simple Approximation Algorithm
In this note, the cut C is referred as the cut-set and the size of the cut |C| as the size of the cut-set. For a graph, a maximum cut is a cut whose size is at least the size of any other cut. The problem of finding a maximum cut in a graph is known as the maximum cut problem. The problem is NP-hard. Simple 0.5approximation algorithms existed long time ago, but no improvement was made till 1990...
متن کاملApproximation Algorithms for Connected Maximum Cut and Related Problems
An instance of the Connected Maximum Cut problem consists of an undirected graph G = (V,E) and the goal is to find a subset of vertices S ⊆ V that maximizes the number of edges in the cut δ(S) such that the induced graph G[S] is connected. We present the first non-trivial Ω( 1 logn ) approximation algorithm for the Connected Maximum Cut problem in general graphs using novel techniques. We then ...
متن کاملCS261: A Second Course in Algorithms Lecture #20: The Maximum Cut Problem and Semidefinite Programming∗
Now that you’re finishing CS261, you’re well equipped to comprehend a lot of advanced material on algorithms. This lecture illustrates this point by teaching you about a cool and famous approximation algorithm. In the maximum cut problem, the input is an undirected graph G = (V,E) with a nonnegative weight we ≥ 0 for each edge e ∈ E. The goal is to compute a cut — a partition of the vertex set ...
متن کاملApproximation for Steiner Network
We present the first polynornial-time approximation algorithm for finding a minimum-cost subgraph having at least a specified number of edges in each cut. This class of problems includes, among others, the generalized Steiner network problem, also called the survivable network design problem. If k is the maximum cut requirement of the problem, our solution comes within a factor of 2k of optimal...
