## Abstract We extend the noncooperative game associated with the cost spanning tree problem introduced by BergantiΓ±os and Lorenzo (Math Method Oper Res 59(2004), 393β403) to situations where agents have budget restrictions. We study the Nash equilibria, subgame perfect Nash equilibria, and strong

In contrast, we show that, unless NP : DTIME n , there can be no polynomial time approximation algorithm for the problem that produces a solution with upgrading cost at most β£ln n times the optimal upgrading cost Ε½ . even if the budget can be violated by a factor f n , for any
## Abstract The capacitated minimum spanning tree is an offspring of the minimum spanning tree and network flow problems. It has application in the design of multipoint linkages in elementary teleprocessing tree networks. Some theorems are used in conjunction with Little's branch and bound algorith
