Approximate Integer Decompositions for Undirected Network Design Problems
A well-known theorem of Nash-Williams and Tutte gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of k edge-disjoint spanning trees in an undirected graph. A corollary o...

A Polynomial-Time Approximation Scheme for Weighted Planar Graph TSP
Given a planar graph on n nodes with costs weights on its edges, de ne the distance between nodes i and j as the length of the shortest path between i and j. Consider this as an i...

Stochastic Steiner Trees Without a Root
Abstract. This paper considers the Steiner tree problem in the model of twostage stochastic optimization with recourse. This model, the focus of much recent research [1–4], tries...

Approximation Algorithms for Shortest Descending Paths in Terrains
A path from s to t on a polyhedral terrain is descending if the height of a point p never increases while we move p along the path from s to t. No efficient algorithm is known to ...

A New ILP Formulation for 2-Root-Connected Prize-Collecting Steiner Networks
We consider the real-world problem of extending a given infrastructure network in order to connect new customers. By representing the infrastructure by a single root node, this pro...
