| | | | The algorithm for probabilistically embedding metric spaces into trees has numerous theoretical applications. It is a key tool in the design of many approximation algorithms and online algorithms. Today we will illustrate the usefulness of these trees in designing an algorithm for the online Steiner tree problem. 1. Online Steiner Tree Let $latex {G=(V,E)}&fg=000000$ be... | |

| | | | I recently came across this theorem on John Cook's blog that I wanted to keep for myself for future reference: Theorem. Let $latex f$ be a function so that $latex f^{(n+1)}$ is continuous on $latex [a,b]$ and satisfies $latex |f^{(n+1)}(x)| \leq M$. Let $latex p$ be a polynomial of degree $latex \leq n$ that interpolates... | |
