We present a randomized algorithm to nd a minimum spanning forest (MSF) in an undirected graph. With high probability, the algorithm runs in logarithmic time and linear work on an...
Abstract. Random sampling is an important tool in the design of parallel algorithms. Using random sampling it is possible to obtain simple parallel algorithms which are e cient in ...
In thispaper we give a 3-approximationalgorithmfor the problem ojJnding a minimum tree spanning any k-vertices in a graph. Our algorithm extends to a 3-approximationalgorithmfor t...
We significantly improve known time bounds for solving the minimum cut problem on undirected graphs. We use a "semiduality" between minimum cuts and maximum spanning tree...
In this paper we explore the structure and semantic properties of the entities stored in statistical databases. We call such entities "statistical objects" (SOS) and prop...
