Title
Colored Non-Crossing Euclidean Steiner Forest.
Abstract
Given a set of k-colored points in the plane, we consider the problem of finding k trees such that each tree connects all points of one color class, no two trees cross, and the total edge length of the trees is minimized. For k = 1, this is the well-known Euclidean Steiner tree problem. For general k, a k rho-approximation algorithm is known, where rho <= 1.21 is the Steiner ratio. We present a PTAS for k = 2, a (5/3 + epsilon)-approximation for k = 3, and two approximation algorithms for general k, with ratios O(root n log k) and k + epsilon.
