We show that it is not possible to approximate the minimum Steiner tree problem within 1 + 1 162 unless RP = NP. The currently best known lower bound is 1 + 1 400 . The reduction is from H astad's nonapproximability result for maximum satisΓΏability of linear equation modulo 2. The improvement on the
A graph is Z-apex if it can be made planar by removing at most 1 vertices. In this paper we show that the vertex set of any graph not containing an l-apex graph as a minor can be partitioned in linear time into 2' sets inducing graphs with small treewidth. As a consequence, several maximum induced-s
