The $k$-Steiner-2NCS problem is as follows: Given a constant $k$, and an undirected connected graph $G = (V,E)$, non-negative costs $c$ on $E$, and a partition $(T, V-T)$ of $V$ into a set of terminals, $T$, and a set of non-terminals (or,…

We study the Steiner Tree problem on unit disk graphs. Given a $n$ vertex unit disk graph $G$, a subset $R\subseteq V(G)$ of $t$ vertices and a positive integer $k$, the objective is to decide if there exists a tree $T$ in $G$ that spans…
