Given a directed graph G = (V, E) and an integer k ≥ 1, a Steiner k-transitive-closure-spanner (Steiner k-TC-spanner) of G is a directed graph H = (VH , EH ) such that (1) V ⊆ ...

We give tight bounds on the parallel complexity of some problems involving random graphs. Speci cally, we show that a Hamiltonian cycle, a breadth rst spanning tree, and a maximal...
We consider the variant of the minimum vertex cover problem in which we require that the cover induces a connected subgraph. We give new approximation results for this problem in d...
Path Layout is a fundamental graph problem in label switching protocols. This problem is raised in various protocols such as the traditional ATM protocol and MPLS which is a new l...
A new framework is presented that uses tools from duality theory of linear programming to derive graph-cut based combinatorial algorithms for approximating NP-hard classification ...
