Fixed Parameter Evolutionary Algorithms and Maximum Leaf Spanning Trees: A Matter of Mutation
Abstract. Evolutionary algorithms have been shown to be very successful for a wide range of NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems. We investigate the NP-hard problem of compu...

A minimum spanning tree algorithm with Inverse-Ackermann type complexity
A deterministic algorithm for computing a minimum spanning tree of a connected graph is presented. Its running time is O(m (m, n)), where is the classical functional inverse of Ack...

An Optimal Minimum Spanning Tree Algorithm
We establish that the algorithmic complexity of the minimum spanning tree problem is equal to its decision-tree complexity. Specifically, we present a deterministic algorithm to fi...

Lower-stretch spanning trees
We show that every weighted connected graph G contains as a subgraph a spanning tree into which the edges of G can be embedded with average stretch O log2 n log log n . Moreover, w...

Estimating the weight of metric minimum spanning trees in sublinear-time
In this paper we present a sublinear time (1+ )-approximation randomized algorithm to estimate the weight of the minimum spanning tree of an n-point metric space. The running time...
