Minimizing Average Shortest Path Distances via Shortcut Edge Addition
We consider adding k shortcut edges (i.e. edges of small fixed length δ ≥ 0) to a graph so as to minimize the weighted average shortest path distance over all pairs of vertices...

Embedding metrics into ultrametrics and graphs into spanning trees with constant average distortion
This paper addresses the basic question of how well can a tree approximate distances of a metric space or a graph. Given a graph, the problem of constructing a spanning tree in a ...

Worst-Case to Average-Case Reductions Based on Gaussian Measures
We show that finding small solutions to random modular linear equations is at least as hard as approximating several lattice problems in the worst case within a factor almost line...

Approximating the Minimum Spanning Tree Weight in Sublinear Time
We present a probabilistic algorithm that, given a connected graph G (represented by adjacency lists) of average degree d, with edge weights in the set {1, . . . , w}, and given a ...

Approximate distance queries and compact routing in sparse graphs
—An approximate distance query data structure is a compact representation of a graph, and can be queried to approximate shortest paths between any pair of vertices. Any such data...
