Given a set S of n points, a weight function w to associate a non-negative weight to each point in S, a positive integer k \ge 1, and a real number \epsilon > 0, we present algorithms for computing a spanner network G(S, E) for the metric…

Let S be a set of n points and let w be a function that assigns non-negative weights to points in S. The additive weighted distance d_w(p, q) between two points p,q belonging to S is defined as w(p) + d(p, q) + w(q) if p \ne q and it is…

A natural requirement of many distributed structures is fault-tolerance: after some failures, whatever remains from the structure should still be effective for whatever remains from the network. In this paper we examine spanners of general…

We present the first polynomial time algorithm for the f vertex fault tolerant spanner problem, which achieves almost optimal spanner size. Our algorithm for constructing f vertex fault tolerant spanner takes $O(k\cdot n\cdot m^2 \cdot W)$…

We present a simple greedy procedure to compute an $(\alpha,\beta)$-spanner for a graph $G$. We then show that this procedure is useful for building fault-tolerant spanners, as well as spanners for weighted graphs. Our first main result is…

We address the following problem: Given a complete $k$-partite geometric graph $K$ whose vertex set is a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, compute a spanner of $K$ that has a ``small'' stretch factor and ``few'' edges. We present two…

A $k$-spanner of a graph $G$ is a sparse subgraph $H$ whose shortest path distances match those of $G$ up to a multiplicative error $k$. In this paper we study spanners that are resistant to faults. A subgraph $H \subseteq G$ is an $f$…

Recent work has pinned down the existentially optimal size bounds for vertex fault-tolerant spanners: for any positive integer $k$, every $n$-node graph has a $(2k-1)$-spanner on $O(f^{1-1/k} n^{1+1/k})$ edges resilient to $f$ vertex…

A geometric $t$-spanner for a set $S$ of $n$ point sites is an edge-weighted graph for which the (weighted) distance between any two sites $p,q \in S$ is at most $t$ times the original distance between $p$ and~$q$. We study geometric…

In this paper we consider the problem of efficiently constructing $k$-vertex fault-tolerant geometric $t$-spanners in $\dspace$ (for $k \ge 0$ and $t >1$). Vertex fault-tolerant spanners were introduced by Levcopoulus et. al in 1998. For…

Recent work has established that, for every positive integer $k$, every $n$-node graph has a $(2k-1)$-spanner on $O(f^{1-1/k} n^{1+1/k})$ edges that is resilient to $f$ edge or vertex faults. For vertex faults, this bound is tight. However,…

A {\em fault-tolerant} structure for a network is required to continue functioning following the failure of some of the network's edges or vertices. In this paper, we address the problem of designing a {\em fault-tolerant} additive spanner,…

Let $H$ be an edge-weighted graph, and let $G$ be a subgraph of $H$. We say that $G$ is an $f$-fault-tolerant $t$-spanner for $H$, if the following is true for any subset $F$ of at most $f$ edges of $G$: For any two vertices $p$ and $q$,…

A $t$-spanner of a weighted undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, is a subgraph $H$ such that $d_H(u,v)\le t\cdot d_G(u,v)$ for all $u,v\in V$. The sparseness of the spanner can be measured by its size (the number of edges) and weight (the sum of all…

A \emph{spanner} of a graph $G$ is a subgraph $H$ that approximately preserves shortest path distances in $G$. Spanners are commonly applied to compress computation on metric spaces corresponding to weighted input graphs. Classic spanner…

We present a new efficient localized algorithm to construct, for any given quasi-unit disk graph G=(V,E) and any e > 0, a (1+e)-spanner for G of maximum degree O(1) and total weight O(w(MST)), where w(MST) denotes the weight of a minimum…

We initiate the study on fault-tolerant spanners in hypergraphs and develop fast algorithms for their constructions. A fault-tolerant (FT) spanner preserves approximate distances under network failures, often used in applications like…

A $k$-spanner of a graph $G$ is a sparse subgraph that preserves its shortest path distances up to a multiplicative stretch factor of $k$, and a $k$-emulator is similar but not required to be a subgraph of $G$. A classic theorem by Thorup…

In this paper, we study the problem of fast constructions of source-wise round-trip spanners in weighted directed graphs. For a source vertex set $S\subseteq V$ in a graph $G(V,E)$, an $S$-sourcewise round-trip spanner of $G$ of stretch $k$…

A tree $\sigma$-spanner of a positively real-weighted $n$-vertex and $m$-edge undirected graph $G$ is a spanning tree $T$ of $G$ which approximately preserves (i.e., up to a multiplicative stretch factor $\sigma$) distances in $G$. Tree…
