sparsity of QR decomposition

Unfortunately you can't. With any orthogonal factorization (e.g. QR, LQ, or SVD) you have the problem that because some of the columns of the orthogonal matrix have to span a particular subspace, and …

Can all convex optimization problems be solved in polynomial time using interior-point algor...

As mentioned by another poster, the work of Nesterov and Nemirovski summarized in Interior-Point Polynomial Algorithms in Convex Programming showed that many convex optimization problems (including li …

Greedy approach to 0-1 Knapsack problem in specific instances

As Frederico has already shown, this isn't enough to make the greedy heuristic immune to counterexamples. It's worth mentioning that there is a simple dynamic programming algorithm for the knapsack …
