A Note on Iterated Rounding for the Survivable Network Design Problem

Abstract

In this note we consider the survivable network design problem (SNDP) in undirected graphs. We make two contributions. The first is a new counting argument in the iterated rounding based 2-approximation for edge-connectivity SNDP (EC-SNDP) originally due to Jain. The second contribution is to make some connections between hypergraphic version of SNDP (Hypergraph-SNDP) introduced by Zhao, Nagamochi and Ibaraki, and edge and node-weighted versions of EC-SNDP and element-connectivity SNDP (Elem-SNDP). One useful consequence is a 2-approximation for Elem-SNDP that avoids the use of set-pair based relaxation and analysis.
