利用变形$O(\log k)$消除Steiner点
Steiner Point Removal with Distortion $O(\log k)$
摘要:
在Steiner点移除(SPR)问题中,我们给出了一个加权图$G=(V,E)$和一组大小为$k$的终端$K\subset V$.我们的目标是找到一个次要的$M$的$G$与终端作为其顶点集,使终端之间的距离将被保留到一个小的乘法失真。Kamma、Krauthgamer和Nguyen [KKN 15]使用了具有指数分布的球增长算法,以表明失真最多为$O(\log^5 k)$。Cheung [Che17]改进了相同算法的分析,通过$O(\log^2 k)$限制失真。我们进一步改进了这个球生长算法的分析,通过$O(\log k)$限制失真。
英文摘要:
In the Steiner point removal (SPR) problem, we are given a weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ and a set of terminals $K\subset V$ of size $k$. The objective is to find a minor $M$ of $G$ with only the terminals as its vertex set, such that the distance between the terminals will be preserved up to a small multiplicative distortion. Kamma, Krauthgamer and Nguyen [KKN15] used a ball-growing algorithm with exponential distributions to show that the distortion is at most $O(\log^5 k)$. Cheung [Che17] improved the analysis of the same algorithm, bounding the distortion by $O(\log^2 k)$. We improve the analysis of this ball-growing algorithm even further, bounding the distortion by $O(\log k)$.
