Lower-stretch spanning trees
We show that every weighted connected graph G contains as a subgraph a spanning tree into which the edges of G can be embedded with average stretch O log2 n log log n . Moreover, w...

Competitive Online Routing in Geometric Graphs
We consider online routing algorithms for finding paths between the vertices of plane graphs. Although it has been shown in Bose et al. [4] that there exists no competitive routin...

How to rank with few errors
We present a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the minimum feedback arc set problem on tournaments. A simple weighted generalization gives a PTAS for KemenyYoung ran...

Planarity Allowing Few Error Vertices in Linear Time
— We show that for every fixed k, there is a linear time algorithm that decides whether or not a given graph has a vertex set X of order at most k such that G − X is planar (w...

Local solutions for global problems in wireless networks
In this paper, we review a recently developed class of algorithms that solve global problems in unit distance wireless networks by means of local algorithms. A local algorithm is ...
