摘要
Given an undirected graph G(V, E) with terminal set T subset of V, the problem of packing element-disjoint Steiner trees is to find the maximum number of Steiner trees that are disjoint on the nonterminal nodes and on the edges. The problem is known to be NP-hard to approximate within a factor of Omega(log n), where n denotes vertical bar V vertical bar. We present a randomized O(log n)-approximation algorithm for this problem, thus matching the hardness lower bound. Moreover, we show a tight upper bound of O(log n) on the integrality ratio of a natural linear programming relaxation.
