چکیده

We present a combinatorial algorithm for the 1-(S; T)-edge-connectivity augmentation problem in digraphs. The general k-(S; T)-edge-connectivity augmentation problem was rst solved by A. Frank and T. Jordd an, Minimal Edge-coverings by Pairs of Sets, Journal of Combinatorial Theory Ser. B, submitted, but their proof does not yield a polynomial-time algorithm. Our algorithm generalizes an earlier result of P. Eswaran and R. E. Tarjan and relies heavily on the nature of the special case k = 1.

NC Approximation Algorithms for 2-Connectivity Augmentation in a Graph

Abst rac t . Given an undirected graph G = (V, E0) with IVI-n, and a feasible set E of m weighted edges on V, the optimal 2-edge (2-vertex) connectivity augmentation problem is to find a subset S* __ E such that G(V, E0 U S*) is 2-edge (2-vertex) connected and the weighted sum of edges in S* is minimized. We devise NC approximation algorithms for the optimal 2-edge connectivity and the optimal ...

Approximating Subset k-Connectivity Problems

A subset T ⊆ V of terminals is k-connected to a root s in a directed/undirected graph J if J has k internally-disjoint vs-paths for every v ∈ T ; T is k-connected in J if T is k-connected to every s ∈ T . We consider the Subset k-Connectivity Augmentation problem: given a graph G = (V,E) with edge/node-costs, node subset T ⊆ V , and a subgraph J = (V,EJ ) of G such that T is k-connected in J , ...

Simpler Sequential and Parallel Biconnectivity Augmentation

For a connected graph, a vertex separator is a set of vertices whose removal creates at least two components and a minimum vertex separator is a vertex separator of least cardinality. The vertex connectivity refers to the size of a minimum vertex separator. For a connected graph G with vertex connectivity k (k ≥ 1), the connectivity augmentation refers to a set S of edges whose augmentation toG...

A Survey on Complexity of Integrity Parameter

Many graph theoretical parameters have been used to describe the vulnerability of communication networks, including toughness, binding number, rate of disruption, neighbor-connectivity, integrity, mean integrity, edgeconnectivity vector, l-connectivity and tenacity. In this paper we discuss Integrity and its properties in vulnerability calculation. The integrity of a graph G, I(G), is defined t...

A Fixed-parameter algorithms for minimum cost edge-connectivity augmentation

We consider connectivity-augmentation problems in a setting where each potential new edge has a nonnegative cost associated with it, and the task is to achieve a certain connectivity target with at most p new edges of minimum total cost. The main result is that the minimum cost augmentation of edge-connectivity from k − 1 to k with at most p new edges is fixed-parameter tractable parameterized ...
