β¦ Synopsis
In this article, efficient algorithms are presented for the minmax-regret 1-center and 1-median problems on a general graph and a tree with uncertain vertex weights. For the minmax-regret 1-center problem on a general graph, we improve the previous upper bound from

) to

). For the problem on a tree, we improve the upper bound from
O
(

) to
O
(

). For the minmax-regret 1-median problem on a general graph, we improve the upper bound from
O
(

log

) to
O
(

## Abstract We consider the 1βmedian problem with uncertain weights for nodes. Specifically, for each node, only an interval estimate of its weight is known. It is required to find a βminmax regretβ location, that is, to minimize the worstβcase loss in the objective function that may occur because
