Efficient distributed approximation algorithms via probabilistic tree embeddings

We present a uniform approach to design efficient distributed approximation algorithms for various fundamental network optimization problems. Our approach is randomized and based on a probabilistic tree embedding due to Fakcharoenphol et al. (J Comput Syst Sci 69(3):485–497, 2004) (FRT embedding). W...
