Abstract:

Given a set  of  points in the plane and a constant ,-center problem is to find two closed disks which each covers the whole , the diameter of the bigger one is minimized, and the distance of the two centers is at least . Constrained -center problem is the -center problem in which the centers are forced to lie on a given line . In this paper, we first introduce -center problem and its constrained version. Then, we present an  algorithm for solving the -center problem. Finally, we propose a linear time algorithm for its constrained version.

Classical Center Location Problem Under Uncertain Environment

This paper investigates the $p$-center location problem on a network in which vertex weights and distances between vertices are uncertain. The concepts of the $alpha$-$p$-center and the expected $p$-center are introduced. It is shown that the $alpha$-$p$-center and the expected $p$-center models can be transformed into corresponding deterministic models. Finally, linear time algorithms for find...

Unweighted p-center problem on extended stars

An extended star is a tree which has only one vertex with degree larger than two. The -center problem in a graph  asks to find a subset  of the vertices of  of cardinality  such that the maximum weighted distances from  to all vertices is minimized. In this paper we consider the -center problem on the unweighted extended stars, and present some properties to find solution.

The P-Center Problem under Uncertainty

Facility location decisions play a prominent role in strategic planning of many firms, companies and governmental organizations. Since in many real-world facility location problems, the data are subject to uncertainty, in this paper, we consider the P-center problem under uncertainty of demands. Using Bertsimas and Sim approach, we develop a robust model of the problem as an integer programming...

Uncapacitated phub center problem under uncertainty

Hubs are facilities to collect arrange and distribute commodities in telecommunication networks, cargo delivery systems, etc. In this paper, an uncapacitated phub center problem in case of single allocation and also multiple allocation will be introduced in which travel times or transportation costs are considered as fuzzy parameters. Then, by proposing new methods, the presented problem is con...

Cyclicity versus Center Problem

We prove that there are one-parameter families of planar differential equations for which the center problem has a trivial solution and on the other hand the cyclicity of the weak focus is arbitrarily high. We illustrate this phenomenon in several examples for which this cyclicity is computed.
