The Depth-Restricted Rectilinear Steiner Arborescence Problem is NP-complete (1508.06792v1)

Published 27 Aug 2015 in cs.CC and math.CO

Abstract: In the rectilinear Steiner arborescence problem the task is to build a shortest rectilinear Steiner tree connecting a given root and a set of terminals which are placed in the plane such that all root-terminal-paths are shortest paths. This problem is known to be NP-hard. In this paper we consider a more restricted version of this problem. In our case we have a depth restrictions $d(t)\in\mathbb{N}$ for every terminal $t$. We are looking for a shortest binary rectilinear Steiner arborescence such that each terminal $t$ is at depth $d(t)$, that is, there are exactly $d(t)$ Steiner points on the unique root-$t$-path is exactly $d(t)$. We prove that even this restricted version is NP-hard.
