Abstract

Given an undirected multigraph G = (V, E) and requirement functions r λ : ( χ2 ) → Z + and r κ : ( χ2 ) Z + (where Z + is the set of nonnegative integers), we consider the problem of augmenting G by the smallest number of new edges so that the edge-connectivity and vertex connectivity between every pair χ, γ ε V become at least r λ (χ, γ) and r k ,(χ,γ), respectively, in the resulting graph G′. In this paper, we show that the problem can be solved in polynomial time if r k is given by r k,(χ, γ) = 2 for all χ, γ ε V.
