Approximation Schemes for Steiner Forest on Planar Graphs and Graphs of Bounded Treewidth
We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, w...

The forest hiding problem
Let be a disk of radius R in the plane. A set F of closed unit disks contained in forms a maximal packing if the unit disks are pairwise disjoint and the set is maximal: i.e., i...
