Creating and Exploiting Flexibility in Steiner Trees
This paper presents the concept of flexibility ? a geometric property associated with Steiner trees. Flexibility is related to the routability of the Steiner tree. We present an o...

A subset spanner for Planar graphs, : with application to subset TSP
Let > 0 be a constant. For any edge-weighted planar graph G and a subset S of nodes of G, there is a subgraph H of G of weight a constant times that of the minimum Steiner tree...

An Improved LP-based Approximation for Steiner Tree
The Steiner tree problem is one of the most fundamental ÆÈ-hard problems: given a weighted undirected graph and a subset of terminal nodes, find a minimum weight tree spanning ...

Node-Weighted Steiner Tree and Group Steiner Tree in Planar Graphs
We improve the approximation ratios for two optimization problems in planar graphs. For node-weighted Steiner tree, a classical network-optimization problem, the best achievable ap...

Improved Steiner tree approximation in graphs
The Steiner tree problem in weighted graphs seeks a minimum weight connected subgraph containing a given subset of the vertices terminals. We present a new polynomial-time heurist...
