Title
Exact solution approaches for the Multi-period Degree Constrained Minimum Spanning Tree Problem.
Abstract
•It is shown that finding optimal multi-period minimum spanning trees is NP-hard.•A new formulation, at least as strong as the one in the literature, is introduced.•New valid inequalities introduced here strengthened our formulation even further.•Two exact methods combining Lagrangian Relaxation and Branch-and-cut are introduced.•Numerical results show that the new inequalities improve the algorithms’ performance.
