Abstract

Given a collection of sets of cardinality at most k, with weights for each set, the maximum weighted packing problem is that of finding a collection of disjoint sets of maximum total weight. We study the worst case behavior of the t-local search heuristic for this problem proving a tight bound of k - 1 + 1/t. This continues the work of Hurkens and Schrijver for unweighted packing problems.
