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...
This paper deals with approximation algorithms for the prize collecting generalized Steiner forest problem, defined as follows. The input is an undirected graph G = (V, E), a colle...
Given an undirected graph with nonnegative costs on the edges, the routing cost of any of its spanning trees is the sum over all pairs of vertices of the cost of the path between t...

Transforming recursion into iteration eliminates the use of stack frames during program execution. It has been studied extensively. This paper describes a powerful and systematic ...
This is a survey of results about versions of fine hierarchies and many-one reducibilities that appear in different parts of theoretical computer science. These notions and relate...
