The 2-Edge-Connected Spanning Subgraph problem (2ECSS) is among the most basic survivable network design problems: given an undirected and unweighted graph, the task is to find a spanning subgraph with the minimum number of edges that is…
The basic goal of survivable network design is to construct low-cost networks which preserve a sufficient level of connectivity despite the failure or removal of a few nodes or edges. One of the most basic problems in this area is the…
The $2$-Edge-Connected Spanning Subgraph problem (2-ECSS) is one of the most fundamental and well-studied problems in the context of network design. In the problem, we are given an undirected graph $G$, and the objective is to find a…
The minimum-weight $2$-edge-connected spanning subgraph (2-ECSS) problem is a natural generalization of the well-studied minimum-weight spanning tree (MST) problem, and it has received considerable attention in the area of network design.…
In the minimum $k$-edge-connected spanning subgraph ($k$-ECSS) problem the goal is to find the minimum weight subgraph resistant to up to $k-1$ edge failures. This is a central problem in network design, and a natural generalization of the…
We provide algorithms for the minimum 2-edge-connected spanning subgraph problem and the minimum 2-vertex-connected spanning subgraph problem with approximation ratio both $\frac{4}{3}$. Using a common theme, the algorithms and their…

The 2-Vertex-Connected Spanning Subgraph problem (2VCSS) is among the most basic NP-hard (Survivable) Network Design problems: we are given an (unweighted) undirected graph $G$. Our goal is to find a spanning subgraph $S$ of $G$ with the…
In the $k$-edge-connected spanning subgraph ($k$ECSS) problem, our goal is to compute a minimum-cost sub-network that is resilient against up to $k$ link failures: Given an $n$-node $m$-edge graph with a cost function on the edges, our goal…
The paper describes a simple deterministic parallel/distributed (2+epsilon)-approximation algorithm for the minimum-weight vertex-cover problem and its dual (edge/element packing).
We present the first polynomial-time approximation schemes, i.e., (1 + {\epsilon})-approximation algorithm for any constant {\epsilon} > 0, for the minimum three-edge connected spanning subgraph problem and the minimum three-vertex…
We consider a variety of NP-Complete network connectivity problems. We introduce a novel dual-based approach to approximating network design problems with cut-based linear programming relaxations. This approach gives a $3/2$-approximation…
We present a new approximation algorithm for the minimum 2-edge-connected spanning subgraph problem. Its approximation ratio is $\frac{4}{3}$, which matches the current best ratio. The approximation ratio of the algorithm is $\frac{6}{5}$…

It has long been known that $d$-dimensional Euclidean point sets admit $(1+\epsilon)$-stretch spanners with lightness $W_E = \epsilon^{-O(d)}$, that is total edge weight at most $W_E$ times the weight of the minimum spaning tree of the set…
We present a simple deterministic single-pass $(2+\epsilon)$-approximation algorithm for the maximum weight matching problem in the semi-streaming model. This improves upon the currently best known approximation ratio of $(4+\epsilon)$. Our…
One of the most important and well-studied settings for network design is edge-connectivity requirements. This encompasses uniform demands such as the Minimum $k$-Edge-Connected Spanning Subgraph problem ($k$-ECSS), as well as nonuniform…
Let $G$ be a strongly connected directed graph. We consider the following three problems, where we wish to compute the smallest strongly connected spanning subgraph of $G$ that maintains respectively: the $2$-edge-connected blocks of $G$…
