New Geometry-Inspired Relaxations and Algorithms for the Metric Steiner Tree Problem
Abstract. Determining the integrality gap of the bidirected cut relaxation for the metric Steiner tree problem, and exploiting it algorithmically, is a long-standing open problem. ...

A Near-Tight Bound for the Online Steiner Tree Problem in Graphs of Bounded Asymmetry
The edge asymmetry of a directed, edge-weighted graph is defined as the maximum ratio of the weight of antiparallel edges in the graph, and can be used as a measure of the heterog...
