We present two algorithms for this problem. The first algorithm computes a $(5+\\epsilon)$-spanner of $K$ with $O(n)$ edges in $O(n \\log n)$ time. The second algorithm computes a $(3+\\epsilon)$-spanner of $K$ with $O(n \\log n)$ edges in $O(n \\log n)$ time. The latter result is optimal: We show that for any $2 \\leq k \\leq n &#8211; \\Theta(\\sqrt{n \\log n} )$, spanners with $O(n \\log n)$ edges and stretch factor less than $3$ do not exist for all complete $k$-partite geometric graphs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/scs\/wp-content\/uploads\/TR-07-22.pdf\">TR-07-22.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carleton University Technical Report TR-07-22 December 5, 2007 Spanners of complete k-Partite Geometric Graphs Prosenjit Bose, Paz Carmi, Mathieu Couture, Anil Maheshwari, Pat Morin, Michiel Smid Abstract 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 $K$ [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":0,"parent":12385,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.2 -
