Abstract: Consider the minimum k-edge-connected spanning subgraph
problem: given a positive integer k and a k-edge-connected
graph G, find a k-edge-connected spanning subgraph of G
with minimum number of edges. This problem is known to
be NP-complete. Khuller and Raghavachari presented the
first algorithm with a performance ratio smaller than 2 for all
k. They proved an upper bound of 1.85 for the performance
ratio of their algorithm. We improve their analysis, proving
that the performance ratio of... (Update)
