ABSTRACT
Given a graph G and a spanning tree T of G, we say that T is a tree t-spanner of G if the distance between every pair of vertices in T is at most t times their distance in G. The problem of finding a tree t-spanner minimizing t is referred to as the Minimum Max-Stretch spanning Tree (MMST) problem. This paper concerns the MMST problem on unweighted graphs. The problem is known to be NP-hard, and the paper presents an O(log n) approximation algorithm for it.

Approximating Minimum Max-Stretch Spanning Trees on Unweighted Graphs
Given a graph \(G\) and a spanning tree \(T\) of \(G\), we say that \(T\) is a tree \(t\)-spanner of \(G\) if the distance between every pair of vertices in \(T\) is at most \(t\) times their distance in \(G\). The problem of finding a tree \(t\)-...
On minimum average stretch spanning trees in polygonal 2-trees
A spanning tree of an unweighted graph is a minimum average stretch spanning tree if it minimizes the ratio of sum of the distances in the tree between the end vertices of the graph edges and the number of graph edges. For a polygonal 2-tree on n ...
