Abstract

This paper achieves O(n3loglogn/logn) time for the 2-center problems on a directed graph with non-negative edge costs under the conventional RAM model where only arithmetic operations, branching operations, and random accessibility with O(logn) bits are allowed. Here n is the number of vertices. This is a slight improvement on the best known complexity of those problems, which is O(n3). We further show that when the graph is with unit edge costs, one of the 2-center problems can be solved in O(n2.575) time.
