Given a complete graph $G=(V,E)$, with nonnegative edge costs, two subsets $R \subset V$ and $R^{\prime} \subset R$, a partition $\mathcal{R}=\{R_1,R_2,\ldots,R_k\}$ of $R$, $R_i \cap R_j=\phi$, $i \neq j$ and…
Calibrations are a possible tool to validate the minimality of a certain candidate. They have been introduced in the context of minimal surfaces and adapted to the case of Steiner problem in several variants. Our goal is to compare the…
Given a graph $G = (V,E)$ and a subset $T \subseteq V$ of terminals, a \emph{Steiner tree} of $G$ is a tree that spans $T$. In the vertex-weighted Steiner tree (VST) problem, each vertex is assigned a non-negative weight, and the goal is to…

Tree containment problem is a fundamental problem in phylogenetic study, as it is used to verify a network model. It asks whether a given network contain a subtree that resembles a binary tree. The problem is NP-complete in general, even in…
We introduce a flow-dependent version of the quadratic Steiner tree problem in the plane. An instance of the problem on a set of embedded sources and a sink asks for a directed tree $T$ spanning these nodes and a bounded number of Steiner…
