We give an exact-budget recovery algorithm for metric k -median with single-exponential dependence on the number of comparison clusters without accurate, distinct proxies in a supplied anchor solution. On positive integral metrics of polynomially bounded diameter, a sufficiently small total proxy error and logarithmically many such clusters yield a $(1+2/e+\varepsilon)$ approximation in polynomial time with arbitrarily high success probability. We also prove bounded-price strictness for one compatible execution of the logarithmic-surplus construction. Together the recovery and payment…
