We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, w...
Abstract. Range searching over tree cross products – a variant of classic range searching – recently has been introduced by Buchsbaum et al. (Proc. 8th ESA, vol. 1879 of LNCS, ...
The deletion–contraction algorithm is perhaps the most popular method for computing a host of fundamental graph invariants such as the chromatic, flow, and reliability polynomi...
We present an algorithm that for any graph G and integer k ≥ 0 in time polynomial in the size of G either nds a spanning tree with at least k internal vertices, or outputs a ne...

The goal is to build a general framework for ad hoc applications over large networks using semantics and complex systems analysis. The first part deals with semantics because appl...
