Approximating the diameter of planar graphs in near linear time

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

We present a (1 + ε)-approximation algorithm running in O(f(ε). nlog⁴_n) time for finding the diameter of an undirected planar graph with n vertices and with nonnegative edge lengths.
