We study the distributed minimum spanning tree (MST) problem, a fundamental problem in distributed computing. It is well-known that distributed MST can be solved in $\tilde{O}(D+\sqrt{n})$ rounds in the standard CONGEST model (where $n$ is…

We consider a family of local search algorithms for the minimum-weight spanning tree, indexed by a parameter $\rho$. One step of the local search corresponds to replacing a connected induced subgraph of the current candidate graph whose…

The global structure of the minimal spanning tree (MST) is expected to be universal for a large class of underlying random discrete structures. However, very little is known about the intrinsic geometry of MSTs of most standard models, and…

Given an undirected, weighted graph, the minimum spanning tree (MST) is a tree that connects all of the vertices of the graph with minimum sum of edge weights. In real world applications, network designers often seek to quickly find a…

We address the problem of building and maintaining distributed spanning trees in highly dynamic networks, in which topological events can occur at any time and any rate, and no stable periods can be assumed. In these harsh environments, we…

The Euclidean Steiner tree problem asks to find a min-cost metric graph that connects a given set of \emph{terminal} points $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, possibly using points not in $X$ which are called Steiner points. Even though near-linear…
