Approximation Algorithms for Unit Disk Graphs

Mobile ad hoc networks are frequently modeled by unit disk graphs. We consider several classical graph theoretic problems on unit disk graphs (Maximum Independent Set, Minimum Vertex Cover, and Minimum (Connected) Dominating Set), which are relevant to such networks. We propose two new notions for unit disk graphs: thickness and density. The thickness of a graph is the number of disk centers in...

New approximations for minimum-weighted dominating sets and minimum-weighted connected dominating sets on unit disk graphs

Given a node-weighted graph, the minimum-weighted dominating set (MWDS) problem is to find a minimum-weighted vertex subset such that, for any vertex, it is contained in this subset or it has a neighbor contained in this set. And the minimum-weighted connected dominating set (MWCDS) problem is to find a MWDS such that the graph induced by this subset is connected. In this paper, we study these ...

Node-weighted Steiner tree approximation in unit disk graphs

Given a graph G = (V ,E) with node weight w : V → R+ and a subset S ⊆ V , find a minimum total weight tree interconnecting all nodes in S. This is the node-weighted Steiner tree problem which will be studied in this paper. In general, this problem is NP-hard and cannot be approximated by a polynomial time algorithm with performance ratio a lnn for any 0 < a < 1 unless NP ⊆ DTIME(nO(logn)), wher...

Local PTAS for Independent Set and Vertex Cover in Location Aware Unit Disk Graphs

We present the first local approximation schemes for maximum independent set and minimum vertex cover in unit disk graphs. In the graph model we assume that each node knows its geographic coordinates in the plane (location aware nodes). Our algorithms are local in the sense that the status of each node v (whether or not v is in the computed set) depends only on the vertices which are a constant...
