Abstract
The problem of finding minimum weight spanning subgraphs with a given connectivity requirement is considered. The problem is NP-hard when the connectivity requirement is greater than one. Polynomial time approximation algorithms for various weighted and unweighed connectivity problems are given. The following results are presented:

Structural cohesion and embeddedness: A hierarchical concept of social groups

TL;DR: In this article, structural cohesion is defined as the minimum number of actors who, if removed from a group, would disconnect the group, and a structural dimension of embeddedness can then be defined through the hierarchical nesting of these cohesive structures.

Survey Topology management techniques for tolerating node failures in wireless sensor networks: A survey

TL;DR: This paper focuses on network topology management techniques for tolerating/handling node failures in WSNs and two broad categories based on reactive and proactive methods have been identified for classifying the existing techniques.

Algorithmic aspects of topology control problems for ad hoc networks

TL;DR: A general approach leading to a polynomial algorithm is presented for minimizing maximum power for a class of graph properties called textbf monotone properties and a new approximation algorithm for the problem of minimizing the total power for obtaining a 2-node-connected graph is obtained.

A general approximation technique for constrained forest problems

TL;DR: A 2-approximation algorithm for the Steiner tree problem was given in this paper with running time of O(n 2 log n) for the shortest path problem, where n is the number of vertices in a graph.
