Approximating the Stretch Factor of Euclidean Graphs
There are several results available in the literature dealing with efficient construction of t-spanners for a given set S of n points in Rd. t-spanners are Euclidean graphs in whic...

On Geometric Spanners of Euclidean and Unit Disk Graphs
We consider the problem of constructing bounded-degree planar geometric spanners of Euclidean and unit-disk graphs. It is well known that the Delaunay subgraph is a planar geometri...

On the Dilation of Delaunay Triangulations of Points in Convex Position
Let S be a finite set of points in the Euclidean plane, and let E be the complete graph whose point-set is S. Chew, in 1986, proved a lower bound of /2 on the stretch factor of th...

Computing the Stretch Factor of Paths, Trees, and Cycles in Weighted Fixed Orientation Metrics
Let G be a graph embedded in the L1-plane. The stretch factor of G is the maximum over all pairs of distinct vertices p and q of G of the ratio LG 1 (p, q)/L1(p, q), where LG 1 (p...

Finding the best shortcut in a geometric network
Given a Euclidean graph G in Rd with n vertices and m edges we consider the problem of adding a shortcut such that the stretch factor of the resulting graph is minimized. Currentl...

Approximation Algorithms for the Bottleneck Stretch Factor Problem
The stretch factor of a Euclidean graph is the maximum ratio of the distance in the graph between any two points and their Euclidean distance. Given a set S of n points in Rd, we ...

Local Construction of Spanners in the 3-D Space
Abstract. In this paper we present local distributed algorithms for constructing spanners in wireless sensor networks modeled as unit ball graphs (shortly UBGs) and quasi-unit ball...
