Balancing Notions of Equity: Approximation Algorithms for Fair Portfolio of Solutions in Combinatorial Optimization

S Gupta, J Moondra, M Singh - arXiv preprint arXiv:2311.03230, 2023 - arxiv.org
Inspired by equity considerations, we consider top-$ k $ norm, ordered norm, and symmetric
monotonic norm objectives for various combinatorial optimization problems. Top-$ k $ norms …
