Consider the minimum size k-edge-connected spanning subgraph problem: given a positive integer k and a k-edge-connected graph G, find a k-edge-connected spanning subgraph of G with the minimum number of edges. This problem is known to be NP-complete. Khuller and Raghavachari presented the first algo
the Group Steiner Problem asks for a minimumcost tree which contains at least one node from each group N i N i N i . In this paper, we give polynomial-time O O O(k k k )approximation algorithms for any fixed > > > 0. This result improves the previously known O O O(k k k)-approximation. We also apply
