Luis Gouveia Université de Lisbonne/University of Lisboa, Portugal SÉMINAIRE / SEMINAR • « Tree Problems with Node Dependent Costs » Résumé / Abstract Consider a graph G=(V,E) where V is the set of nodes and E is the set of edges with non-negative costs associated. We also consider a concave cost function on the degree of each node and a constraint on the degree of each node. These considerations are mainly motivated in the telecommunications field where specific technology must be installed on each node with a degree greater than 1. We consider this variant on the classical Spanning Tree Problem and on the Prize-collecting Steiner Tree Problem. Several integer linear programming problems based on reformulation techniques such as "discretrization" and "knapsack/shortest path" are presented and their linear programming relaxations are compared using a set of instances with up to 100 nodes.
