On the Minimum Labelling Spanning bi-Connected Subgraph problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce the minimum labelling spanning bi-connected subgraph problem (MLSBP) replacing connectivity by bi-connectivity in the well known minimum labelling spanning tree problem (MLSTP). A graph is bi-connected if, for every two vertices, there are, at least, two vertex-disjoint paths joining them. The problem consists in finding the spanning bi-connected subgraph or block with minimum set of labels. We adapt the exact method of the MLSTP to solve the MLSTB and the basic greedy constructive heuristic, the maximum vertex covering algorithm (MVCA). This procedure is a basic component in the application of metaheuristics to solve the problem.

An efficient heuristic is presented for the problem of finding a minimum-size kconnected spanning subgraph of an (undirected or directed) simple graph G = (V,E). There are four versions of the problem, and the approximation guarantees are as follows: • minimum-size k-node connected spanning subgraph of an undirected graph 1 + [1/k], • minimum-size k-node connected spanning subgraph of a directe...
متن کاملA Constant Factor Approximation for Minimum λ-Edge-Connected k-Subgraph with Metric Costs
In the (k, λ)-subgraph problem, we are given an undirected graph G = (V, E) with edge costs and two positive integers k and λ and the goal is to find a minimum cost simple λ-edge-connected subgraph of G with at least k nodes. This generalizes several classical problems, such as the minimum cost k-Spanning Tree problem or k-MST (which is a (k, 1)-subgraph), and minimum cost λ-edge-connected span...

In this paper, we propose several integer programming (IP) formulations to exactly solve the minimum-cost λ -edge-connected k-subgraph problem, or the (k,λ )-subgraph problem, based on its graph properties. Special cases of this problem include the well-known k-minimum spanning tree problem (if λ = 1), λ -edgeconnected spanning subgraph problem (if k = |V |) and k-clique problem (if λ = k−1 and...
