We study the soft-capacitated facility location game which is an extension of the facility location game of Pa1 and Tardos. We propose a 6-approximate cross-monotonic cost-sharing method. Numerical tests indicate that the method is effective.
In this paper, we discuss complex convex quadratically constrained optimization with uncertain data. Using S-Lemma, we show that the robust counterpart of complex convex quadratically constrained optimization with ellipsoidal or intersection-of-two-ellipsoids uncertainty set leads to a complex semidefinite program. By exploring the approximate S-Lemma, we give a complex semidefinite program which approximates the NP-hard robust counterpart of complex convex quadratic optimization with intersection-of-ellipsoids uncertainty set.
In this paper, we consider the fault-tolerant concave facility location problem （FTCFL） with uniform requirements. By investigating the structure of the FTCFL, we obtain a modified dual-fitting bifactor approximation algorithm. Combining the scaling and greedy argumentation technique, the approximation factor is proved to be 1.52.
