Local 3-approximation algorithms for weighted dominating set and vertex cover in quasi unit-disk graphs

چکیده
We present a simple 3-approximation algorithm for minimum-weight dominating set and minimum-weight vertex cover in unit-disk graphs and quasi unit-disk graphs in which each node knows its coordinates. The algorithm is local: the output of a node depends solely on the input within its constantradius neighbourhood. The local horizon of the algorithm is small, both in the worst case and on average.

Impact of Locality on Location Aware Unit Disk Graphs
Due to their importance for studies oi wireless networks, recent years have seen a surge of activity on the design of local algorithms for the solution of a variety of network tasks. We study the behaviour of algorithms with very low localities. Despite of this restriction we propose local constant ratio approximation algorithms for solving minimum dominating and connected dominating set, maxim...
متن کاملLinear-Time Approximation Algorithms for Unit Disk Graphs
Numerous approximation algorithms for unit disk graphs have been proposed in the literature, exhibiting sharp trade-offs between running times and approximation ratios. We propose a method to obtain linear-time approximation algorithms for unit disk graph problems. Our method yields linear-time (4 + ε)-approximations to the maximum-weight independent set and the minimum dominating set, as well ...
متن کاملConstant-Factor Approximation for Minimum-Weight (Connected) Dominating Sets in Unit Disk Graphs
For a given graph with weighted vertices, the goal of the minimum-weight dominating set problem is to compute a vertex subset of smallest weight such that each vertex of the graph is contained in the subset or has a neighbor in the subset. A unit disk graph is a graph in which each vertex corresponds to a unit disk in the plane and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their disks have a non...
متن کاملNew 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 ...
متن کاملNode-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...
