Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research topic, three approximation algorithms have been proposed for the hard problems in the problem class of #P-hard. The three proposed algorithms are all fully polynomial time approximation schemes (FPTASes). First algorithm computes the volume of the knapsack polytope with multiple constraints. Second algorithm computes the volume of the geometric dual of the knapsack polytope. Third algorithm computes the probability distribution function of the longest path length in DAGs with random edge lengths. Although there are distinct techniques in each algorithms, the algorithms share one technique, the staircase approximation of the convolution integrals. One result is published refereed journal Algorithmica. The other results are (going to be) presented in refereed international coferences WALCOM2017 and COCOON2017.
