Constant approximation for fault-tolerant median problems via iterative rounding

In this paper, we study the fault-tolerant matroid median and fault-tolerant knapsack median problems. These two problems generalize many fundamental clustering and facility location problems, such as uniform fault-tolerant $k$-median, uniform fault-tolerant facility location, matroid median, knapsack median, etc. We present a versatile iterative rounding framework and obtain a unifying constant-factor approximation algorithm.
