โฆ Synopsis
Let P,,n~>3, be the set of vertices of a regular n-gon and o be the centre of P,. Let P+ = P, u [o}. In this paper we determine the Steiner minimal trees on P+. By this example we will see how complicated the Steiner problem may become if even one regular point not lying on the Steiner polygon is added.

Given a finite set of points P in the Euclidean plane, the Steiner problem asks us to constuct a shortest possible network interconnecting P. Such a network is known as a minimal Steiner tree. The Steiner problem is an intrinsically difficult one, having been shown to be NP-hard [7]; however, it oft
A Steiner topology t, is defined to be a degenerate topology of another Steiner topology t, if t, is obtained from t, by sequentially collapsing Steiner points into their adjacent regular points of degree less than three. A full topology t is called optimal if there is a Steiner minimal tree whose t
